ZooLights - Powered by Pepco

Light Up Your Holiday with ZooLights

This winter, don’t hibernate… illuminate! For the third consecutive year, Pepco is a proud sponsor of ZooLights, the winter lights celebration at the Smithsonian’s National Zoo.

ZooLights will make the season bright for 19 nights from December 4 through January 2:

  • December 4 - 13 (Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights only)
  • December 18 - January 2 (Every night except December 24, 25 and 31)

This year’s festival promises to be even brighter, with new animal light sculptures and thousands more sparkling lights. And Pepco will have an information booth in the Think Tank building with program information and energy-efficiency tips to help you save energy and money.

It’s all powered by highly efficient, cool-to-the touch LED lights, which use 90 percent less energy than traditional incandescent light bulbs.

Admission is $5 for Friends of the National Zoo members and $8 for nonmembers.

Tickets are now on sale at the Zoo's Visitor Center (Monday-Friday, 9 a.m.-5 p.m.). Tickets are also available through Ticketmaster, by phone at 202.397.SEAT or by visiting any Ticketmaster outlet. For more information, visit the Zoo’s Web site.
