UPDATE: The Holiday Lights event and the Starlight Express Train rides are canceled for Saturday, December 10 due to forecasted heavy rains and high winds. 

If you had purchased tickets for December 10 and would like to exchange your tickets for another night of the event, email your receipt number and the date you wish to attend, or call 916-461-6601 for assistance. If you prefer a refund, no action is required on your part; refunds will be processed within 7 to 10 days.

We apologize for the inconvenience and hope to see you soon!

Thousands of bright and colorful lights, sparkling ornaments and trees, lighted animal figures, and displays transform the zoo sanctuary with holiday spirit. Local caroling groups and musicians provide the merry sounds of the season, and the Folsom Valley Railway miniature train provides special nighttime rides. All proceeds from the event benefit the zoo sanctuary animals.

Event and train tickets are only available online; no tickets will be sold at the gate. Admission and train rides are limited each night of the event and tickets for both are date-specific. Event admission is $10/person and train tickets are $5/person; admission and train rides are free for ages under 2 years. Event dates will sell out—early ticket purchase is strongly encouraged.
