Fall is the perfect time travel — and the North Carolina Zoo is giving you two great reasons to bring the family to one of the world’s largest natural habitat zoos.

On the weekends of Oct. 21-22 + Oct. 28-29, go on an African safari at Boo at the North Carolina Zoo, featuring:

  • Daytime Halloween fun (perfect for kids 4-12, but all ages welcomed)
  • Trick or treating along the pathways of Africa
  • Activities, inflatables, entertainment + costume contests in the Africa Amphitheater
