π LANTERNS & LIGHT IS BACK π Get ready to experience the magic of Lanterns & Light as our illuminated winter trail returns for 2026, and it's bigger and BETTER than ever... π
New for 2026π
Discover a series of immersive new light installations β from a tunnel of shimmering lights to a glowing overhead canopy β alongside striking scenes designed to unfold as you journey through the trail. Returning favourites are back too, including glowing animal puppets, synchronised light and sound displays, and beautifully lit winter moments that have become a much-loved part of Lanterns & Light.
Weβre also hosting adult-only evenings this year β perfect for a festive night out or date night - and new for 2026, student tickets are now available.
It's more than just a winter trail, it's a chance to experience the zoo in a completely different way, while also supporting vital conservation work that helps wildlife thrive in Chester and around the world π
Book your tickets now and join us for an unforgettable winter evening at Chester Zoo! π
