⭐️ Event Spotlight: Zoolumination

You really don't want to miss this one..

November 07, 2024

🤠 Howdy -

For our second event spotlight, we wanted to go with something more family friendly. Zoolumination is a huge lantern festival put on at the Nashville Zoo. There are beautiful visuals, performances, animals, and much more.

We attended Zoolumination last year and plan on going again this year. One night is plenty but if you have kids, you may want to spring for the platinum pass.

We recommend getting there earlier in the night to see as many animals as you can!

⭐️ Favorite Part of the Event

The spiked hot cocoa is a must (or unspiked). You won’t find many nights during the Zoolumination run that aren’t cold and the hot cocoa hits the spot every time.

Have a great day!
