The Topeka Zoo is excited to announce that Zoo Lights Presented by Evergy is back at the Topeka Zoo after a successful first year. Last year, over 65,000 people showed up to bask in the glow of the lights, meet Santa Claus, and sip hot chocolate. While it might be easy to sit back and accept the success of last year, here at the Zoo we’re always striving for bigger and better. In Year Two we’re DOUBLING the lights, fun, magic, and still have a few other surprises up our festive sweater sleeves.

With an already expansive display of holiday decor, we knew doubling the festivities would be impossible to pull off without the help of Topeka’s best and BRIGHTEST volunteers and business partners. Evergy is returning as our presenting sponsor. As Zoo Lights grows in size, so does our appreciation for the support from Evergy and all our other sponsors and volunteers who bring holiday cheer to the Topeka Community.

Let the Topeka Zoo be your Winter Holiday Destination with FREE Santa Photos, visits from reindeer straight from Santa’s training facility, and private igloo rentals perfect for dates, birthday parties, or a nights out with friends.
