Christmas Day 2015 is now a great memory.

So, with most of the rush and bustle completed, you still have time to enjoy a brand-new, festive special event, at the Los Angeles Zoo.

This year, the L.A. Zoo premiered “L.A. Zoo Lights“, a magical lighted/animated nighttime celebration.  Their displays include glittering light tunnels, 3D Christmas and animal-themed lighted exhibits, animal-inspired projections–and even a display of “bullfrogs”, created from more than three thousand lit-up water bottles!

And tomorrow evening, they’d like to invite you and your family to celebrate .New Year’s Eve with them.

Tomorrow evening, from 6 to 10, the Zoo hosts “A Very Animated New Year’s Eve”, with holiday-themed screenings.  “Shrek the Halls” and “Merry Madagascar” will be among the DreamWorks animation classics screened throughout the evening, snack bars and dining facilities will be open, and of course, you’ll get to see all the spectacular new LED and laser creations as the L.A. Zoo both “rings out the old” and “rings in a new” Christmastime tradition!

Can’t make it this New Year’s Eve?  “L.A. Zoo Lights” remains open through Sunday, January 4th!

“L.A. Zoo Lights” is happening nightly, rain or shine, from 6 to 10 pm,. now through Sunday, January 4 at the Los Angeles Zoo, 5333 Zoo Drive.  Their “Very Animated New Year’s Eve” celebration begins at 6 pm, Wednesday, December 31.  According to the L.A. Zoo website, ticket purchase times are staggered,  and animated films do not have specific screening times.  Have a very Happy and safe New Year!
