If your family can’t wait until October 31 to go trick-or-treating, they can come to the Pittsburgh Zoo to get an early start on the Halloween festivities. Don’t miss the ZooBoo weekends coming up soon!
When and Where
This event will be held at the Pittsburgh Zoo & PPG Aquarium. You and your family will have two weekends to attend the ZooBoo event this year. It will be held on October 19, 20, 26, and 27. It will run from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. each day. The zoo is located at 7370 Baker Street Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15206.
Halloween Fun
The zoo will host a variety of activities this month, including an exciting haunted house, monster mash dance party, and some lively Halloween parades. There will be magic shows, character meet and greets, and a chance to take photos with the elephants on October 19 and 20.
Everyone’s invited to dress in their Halloween costume and bring a treat bag, because a trick-or-treat trail will run throughout the zoo. Clever costumes might even win the costume contests which occur at 11:45 a.m. and 1:45 p.m. you’ll see some fascinating sights like an underwater pumpkin carving demonstration at the aquarium, and guests can get creative with the bats n’ crafts.
Costume Ideas
While you can always pick up a costume when you’re out and about, you can get the whole family involved and make a costume at home. A do-it-yourself outfit is a great way to exercise your family’s creativity, and there are plenty of ideas out there that don’t even require sewing.
If you have some time to prepare, you can also pick up supplies from a hobby shop and make something from scratch. A blossoming artist could dress in this painter’s costume , complete with a giant brush made from a pool float and pipe cleaners. Everyone can lend a hand to make the legs of this spider costume , and if you want to blend in with the zoo’s residents, you can keep it simple with some animal ears and antlers .
