One of Manitoba’s most popular Halloween events is back! Boo at the Zoo at Assiniboine Park Zoo will run from October 6 – 29, 2023.


For 21 nights, the Zoo will be transformed into a spooky, spell-tacular Halloween spectacle! Boo at the Zoo features a curious cast of costumed characters, rides, games, tasty treats, jaw-dropping performances, live music and dazzling displays.

“Boo at the Zoo is back and better than ever!” said Sara Wolowich Brown, Communications Coordinator, Assiniboine Park Conservancy. “Visitors can expect a new route through the Zoo, more performances, and new photo-ops. Reduced capacity will mean smaller crowds, shorter lines, and more time to enjoy the event!”
