SF Teaching Zoo's 29th annual Boo at the Zoo is Gainesville's favorite Halloween treat for families. The students and staff transform the zoo into a spooky but safe trick or treating event for the whole family. All ages are welcome to join us in costume and trick or treat!
In addition to the festivities and trick or treating in the zoo, Fun4GatorKids hosts a KidsZone in front of the zoo full of community organizations with crafts, activities, and even more candy! There will be live entertainment from Danscompany of Gainesville performing their Thriller trilogy, animal encounters, and games run by Santa Fe Saints Athletics teams.
