Chester Zoo has partnered with Sony Music for the second year to bring you a trail even more unforgettable than before! Our reimagined trail is now even longer, packed with brand-new features, and for the first time, we’re opening on New Year’s Day!
Lanterns and Lights takes you on a journey through vibrant lands where orangutans, elephants, and lions roam. Wander through a glowing tunnel of lights, enjoy festive treats at our Christmas food markets on the trail, and greet Father Christmas in his workshop!
Lanterns and Light is bigger, better, and brighter than ever before. We’ll have brand-new captivating light installations, with all the magic of our beloved lanterns and puppets.
Create lasting memories on an unforgettable Christmas light trail. Experience the joy of interacting with never-seen-before animal puppets including energetic meerkats, colorful peacocks, and playful snow leopards, joined by lots of your favorites from previous years.
Returning for 2024, our illuminating sea of light will be synchronized to music, creating a mesmerising spectacle of light and sound, plus an impressive fire garden, rainbow bridge, and pea-lit lanterns all return too!
NEW FOR 2024: Giant candy canes, fairy lights, ribbon tunnel, neon walkways, oversized festive baubles, and loads more exciting new surprises.
The journey around the zoo takes around 60-90 minutes and there are lots of lovely festive feasts for you to enjoy as you travel around. Plus, fairground rides at our Main Entrance.
