Santa and Mrs. Claus are planning a summertime visit to bring some wintery fun to the Louisville Zoo July 22 and 23, 2023 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Santa’s Summer Safari is free with Zoo admission or Zoo membership.

The Zoo’s holiday summer fun will include games, crafts, wintery animal enrichment and, of course, the opportunity to meet Santa and Mrs. Claus! This is the second year for Santa’s off-season visit and is certain to be a new Zoo tradition.

The full schedule of activities will be made available soon at louisvillezoo.org/santa.

The Zoo is open daily year-round. Current hours are 10 a.m. – 5 p.m. (enjoy the Zoo until 6 p.m.). The Zoo is closed on Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year’s Day. Visit louisvillezoo.org for more info.
