You don't want to miss this Signature Event.
Guests will have the opportunity to join your friends and fellow Chamber members as we celebrate the holidays at the Akron Zoo. You’ll get to stroll through three areas of the zoo and experience the lights, music and sounds of this festive environment.
Guests will have access to Wild Asia which opened in 2021 featuring Sumatran tigers, red pandas and white-cheeked gibbons. Stroll through the indoor Komodo Kingdom and visit the Komodo dragons, Galapagos tortoise (and more) and the rainforest.
New this year is Legends of the Wild where you might encounter condors, jaguars, lemurs, snow leopards or tufted deer and more. These animals represent different geographic areas but have a story or a legend associated with them.
Don’t forget to take a wild ride on the Carousel. You can ride one of 33 hand carved animals from around the world.
The event will include indoor and outdoor space with plenty of space and a variety of experiences for all of our guests. The event is open to Chamber members and their guests.
