Enjoy an unforgettable evening of light and color, as you and your group stroll along the 3/4-mile loop around the Zoo filled with all-new, larger-than-life handcrafted lantern scenes, each glowing with thousands of LED lights.
This year’s dazzling event will feature ocean-inspired landscapes meet mythical creatures, from graceful ice dragons and unicorns to a new twist on our beloved showcase dragon, providing a unique take on a holiday lights show that will leave attendees clamoring to come back again and again with friends and family.
There are several opportunities for groups looking to experience the magic of the event, as well. Discounted pricing is available for groups of 15 or more on a single night. Event packages with catering and private spaces are also available for corporate events or holiday parties. And there are select opportunities for full buyouts, where groups can reserve their own evening of the festival for a private experience. Those interested in group events should email events@centralfloridazoo.org.
Sponsorship opportunities of the Zoo’s Asian Lantern Festival: Into the Wild are also available. Sponsorship is a great way to allow your company to gain exposure and show your company is supporting the important conservation and education work of the Zoo and the positive impact it has on the animal and human residents in Central Florida. We offer sponsorships of all the individual lantern installations at a variety of price points. For more information and images of available lanterns to sponsor, contact the Zoo's Development Team at development@centralfloridazoo.org or (407) 323-4450, extension 105.
This is the sixth year for the festival, which started in 2019 and was not held in 2020. Last year, the event once again broke attendance records, drawing an incredible 120,000 ticket sales, with so many who walked through the Zoo’s gates to experience the spectacular festival.
The festival is presented in partnership with Tianyu Arts & Culture, Inc.
Family and individual tickets go on sale October 1, 2025.
