Unwrapping the Magic: A Dazzling Experience at Christmas in the Wild, Zoo Tamp

Tis the season for joy, lights, and wild wonders at Zoo Tampa's Christmas in the Wild! In this enchanting holiday spectacle, I recently embarked on a magical journey filled with twinkling lights, majestic animals, and festive melodies. After seeing a segment on the news with our local newscaster Charlie Belcher, I decided I had to visit this extraordinary yuletide celebration that brings together the spirit of Christmas and the allure of the animal kingdom.

As I entered Zoo Tampa, the holiday spirit enveloped me at the Circle Center—a mesmerizing hub of Christmas cheer. The grandeur of multiple trees adorned with brilliant lights set the stage for an unforgettable experience. The air was filled with the infectious excitement of visitors, and the sight of families and friends gathered around created a heartwarming atmosphere.

The centerpiece of the Circle Center is the breathtaking light show that unfolds every 15 minutes. The symphony of lights dances to cheerful holiday tunes, creating a spectacle that captivates visitors of all ages. The vibrant colors and synchronized movements of the lights are nothing short of mesmerizing. But that's not all; brace yourself for a magical surprise as the show culminates in a delightful snowfall, transporting you to a winter wonderland right in the heart of Florida!

Throughout the zoo there are many photo opportunities. The market place has a famous visitor, Santa. This is an opportunity to have your photo taken with Santa. Have a cup of cococo and write out your Christmas wish list then drop it off in Sant’s post box.
