Electric Safari's 21st Anniversary
Lights, Animals, and Holiday Spirit!
The Cheyenne Mountain Zoo is excited to celebrate 21 years of holiday lights and winter family fun at Electric Safari! Over one million sparkling lights illuminate crisp winter nights, including over 40 animated light sculptures. Warming fires throughout the Zoo offer a reprieve from the chill, as do select indoor animal exhibits that remain open during the event. And if you haven't seen the city's lights from the Zoo at night, you're in for a double treat!Dates
