Glow big or go home this holiday season at Zoolumination

The country’s largest lantern festival, Zoolumination, returns to the Nashville Zoo Thursday, Nov. 14 through Feb. 9.

For the first time ever, guests can experience the lights in a new way — while skating the Smashville Ice Rink. More dazzling features include:

• 1,000+ new custom-made silk lanterns, massive lighted structures (read: dragons + other fantastical beasts), and picturesque walkways
• Nocturnal animal encounters
• Unique live performances each night
• The North Pole Village, which will host Santa from Nov. 29 to Dec. 24
