Kick off your family's spooky festivities at the zoo, where creepy creatures lurk on a regular basis! The Bronx Zoo's annual Boo at the Zoo event is the perfect way to celebrate Halloween for kids, with live performances, costumed Halloween parades and plenty of chances to see the animals.
Boo at the Zoo is one of the best Halloween events for kids, spanning over several weekends during the month of October. Families are invited to come dressed in costume to stroll through the Jack O'Lantern Illumination, find their way through a hay maze, get creative with crafts and stop by treat stations.
Boo at the Zoo takes place from 10am–5pm on Saturdays and Sundays, October 3 through November 1, 2015. The Queens Zoo hosts a weekend-long event from 10am–5pm on October 31 and November 1.
The main Boo at the Zoo takes place at the Bronx Zoo—the largest of the zoos in NYC—located at 2300 Southern Blvd, Bronx. A smaller-scale version takes place at the Queens Zoo, located at 53–51 111th St at 53rd Ave, Queens.
