One Ticket. Two Icons. One Wild Experience.
We've teamed up with the Calgary Tower to create the Wild Lights & Heights Combo Pass so you can experience two of the city’s most iconic attractions with one ticket. Whether you’re admiring the city lights or creating memories with a glowing stroll, this is your chance to see Calgary from every angle and save big!
ZOOLIGHTS, presented by Olympia Trust Company, is celebrating its 30th anniversary!
For three decades, the zoo has brought Calgarians together under the glow of lights to create memories, celebrate the holidays, and inspire connection to wildlife. Come see how we've been wildly aglow for 30 years and discover sparkling new favourites like a glowing bamboo trail and prairie-inspired light displays to festive food and drinks, interactive activities, and more.
Join us for a celebration that shines all season long.
