The San Francisco Zoo’s evening light show runs from November 6, 2026 through January 3, 2027, Wednesday to Sunday evenings from 5:30 to 9pm (closed Mondays and Tuesdays). The ZooLights ticket also includes the zoo’s Dinos Rule! exhibit.
Tickets are $30 for adults and $21 for children, with a $3 discount for zoo members. It is a separate evening ticket, not a daytime zoo ticket; each ticket is good for one visit on any date during the run, and reservations are not required.
