This colorful and immersive adventure is open on select evenings from 7:30 p.m. to 10:30 p.m., March 27 through May 26. This lantern festival is best enjoyed after dark. While the Zoo will open at 7:30 p.m., we recommend enjoying dinner and a free train ride before setting off at dusk to witness the shimmering sights of Glo Wild.
