After an afternoon exploring the zoo, or relaxing in your lodge - immerse yourself in the festive magic of lanterns & light.
This isn’t just about the colours, lights and sounds. Or even the illuminated animal puppets. Lanterns & Light is an immersive winter wonderland – designed to amaze you every step of the way.
After an afternoon exploring the zoo step into a world of wonder and meet brand-new puppets for this year – alongside some firm favourites. Follow the glow through new mesmerising light installations – wander through a fibre optic tunnel, look up to a stunning pea-lit canopy, and discover suspended jellyfish and floating feathers.
Let our lights guide the way as you meet our playful puppets – and soak up the atmosphere of our enchanting soundscape before returning to your luxury lodge for a peaceful night’s sleep.
Wake the next morning to tranquil views and enjoy a delicious breakfast before heading back into the zoo to continue your adventure.
