About Holiday Lights Spectacular at Roger Williams Park Zoo

Bring family and friends to experience Holiday Lights Spectacular – an annual walk-through experience just in time for the holidays. Featuring festive, larger-than-life dazzling displays, this year’s event boasts more than 3.5 million twinkling lights that transform the Zoo into a winter wonderland! Join us and ring in the season nightly from November 27 through January 3. Bundle up, grab an adult beverage, hot chocolate, or roast some s’mores and stroll through 40 acres of illuminated pathways.
From radiant reindeer to sparkly snowmen, this is a must-see experience this holiday season. And for the little ones, Santa will be at the Spectacular on Thursday nights in December through Christmas. The visit is free to families who have a same-night ticket for the 5 or 6 pm timeslot only.
Tickets for Holiday Lights must be purchased online in advance.
Holiday Lights will be closed on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.
WEATHER POLICY — The Holiday Lights Spectacular is open rain or shine. In the case of light to moderate rain or snow, the show will be open; there are no refunds. Please check the website or visit Facebook for updates.
