Dublin Zoo has confirmed that one of their most spectacular attractions will return this Christmas: Wild Lights!
Last year, the night-time experience had to be postponed due to various Covid measures.
Back in all its dazzling glory, Wild Lights will take visitors on a magical adventure 'around the world' where they will see some of the most famous global landmarks and iconic symbols.
From Spain to India and Morocco to the USA – guests will embark on a breath-taking journey taking in the famous sights from all the continents without ever leaving the grounds of Dublin Zoo.
As well as debuting a brand-new theme, Wild Lights will extend into the African Plains for the very first time ever.
