Get creative at our Halloween fun crafts and activities corner, and listen to fascinating tales from our ghostly guests to learn what lurks in the shadows!
Dress to impress – the creatures of the dark are watching! Can you find our giant ghoulish figures to snap a photo? Remember to tag us at @bristolzooproject!

Treat (or trick!) your family to a great day out this Halloween...join us for a spooky adventure and meet amazing animals!
Dive in to feel-good family fun discovering amazing animals from around the world. Get face to face with giraffes on the raised walkway, watch cheetahs prowl and meet lemurs in the walkthrough, with no barriers between you and the animals!
Our zoo is designed with nature and our animals’ welfare in mind. Discover large, enriching habitats for our animals and explore woodland paths teeming with native British wildlife.
Find places to play as you explore the zoo, including the brand new Explorers Basecamp and the much-loved Barefoot Trail — a treat for toes of any age! Tower Meadow offers acres to roam, perfect for picnics and play.
Tuck in to stone-baked pizzas oozing with cheese, fresh sandwiches, gooey brownies and crumbly cookies and cakes. Treat yourselves to an ice cream from local supplier Marshfield Farm – will it be decadent chocolate, heavenly honeycomb or succulent strawberry?
"It's always interesting to see attractions blend seasonal fun with purpose, and they struck the perfect balance – spooky, interactive and family-friendly, all while highlighting their conservation mission and keeping it educational" – Sarah, LinkedIn, Howl-oween 2024
"Excellent event! Our 9 year old twins loved it. A great mis of animals and play areas, topped off with wonderful talks. The Halloween theme was a brilliant bonus." – Shelley, Facebook, Howl-oween 2024
