Sensory Friendly ZooLights is taking place at the Phoenix Zoo on Monday, Dec. 4.
From 5:30 to 10:30 p.m. tomorrow night, this experience is designed for guests that thrive in a sensory-supportive environment.
During this special evening you can expect the same great ZooLights with some modifications to make it more sensory friendly:
- Smaller crowds due to limited tickets available for the evening (only 5,000 available each night).
- A quieter music volume throughout the experience.
- The Lake Lights Show turned off to reduce flashing lights (lights will just be static).
- Photos with Santa (separate fee).
- The lights on the Arizona Trail will be very slow-moving.
- The rest of the zoo will have reduced light movement to the extent possible.
- Sensory Stations will be available throughout the experience including:
- BE and Fidgets – Leapin’ Lagoon Pavers
- Fur, Feathers, and Scales – Adventure Center
- Take a Break – Predator Passage
- Building Blocks – Lakeside
- Tiger Touch and Conservation – Conservation Center
- Recess Games – Savanna Treehouse
- All new Glow Garden.
- Sensory Bags available first come first served.
