Meet your favorite Disney character at Boo in the Zoo

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. (WDEF) – Spooky season is right around the corner, and the Chattanooga Zoo is inviting families to celebrate with Boo at the Zoo.

Boo at the Zoo is an annual family-friendly event hosted by the Chattanooga Zoo for the entire community.

Children will have the chance to dress up in their favorite costumes and meet beloved Disney characters.

Jake Cash, Director of Communications, said families can expect plenty of fun.

“People really enjoy getting to meet the characters and take pictures. The event also includes trick-or-treating with lots of candy, costume contests for kids to show off their outfits, and a scavenger hunt throughout the zoo.”

All the animals will receive Halloween-themed enrichment activities, which are not quite toys, but special objects designed to engage their natural instincts.

The celebration takes place on Fridays and Saturdays beginning October 10 and continuing through Halloween.

Zoo staff encourage families to purchase tickets early, as they tend to sell quickly.

It will be seven nights of festive decorations and activities for all to enjoy.
