ZooLights

ZooLights returns to Stone Zoo from November 20, 2026, through January 3, 2027, open 4 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. with last entry at 8:30 p.m. It is closed on Thanksgiving and Christmas Day. Tree-lined paths are strung with lights, and Yukon Creek becomes a candy-themed display with a model train set. Ticket prices change by date, so check the ticket link.

Stone Zoo is in Stoneham, north of Boston. Zoo New England says parking is free in nearby lots, most paths run one way during the event, and a typical visit takes an hour to an hour and a half. Santa visits are offered on select evenings for $5 per guest.
