Boo at the Zoo

Are you ready for the 2023 Boo at the Zoo?

Join us on October 29th from 12pm to 5pm for the 30th year of Boo at the Zoo! 

Starting in 2023 we will be extending our hours and implementing timed tickets. Tickets are still free, but by selecting your time you will be able to better plan your day and participate in other Hutchinson events!

Sign up for timed entry today!

Thanks to all our sponsors who have helped to bring you a fun, kid-friendly, trick-or-treating day at your Hometown Hutchinson Zoo!

Come out with your best non-scary Halloween costume as you fill your candy bag with candy & prizes. We will also have a bounce house donated by Inflate-o-Fun, games, and special zoo animal encounters.

The Prairie Thunder Railroad will be running during the event. Be sure to buy tickets in the gift shop (kids 3-12 are $2 and adults 13 & up are $3) and enjoy a special spooky but not scary ride.

Enjoy this great family-friendly event at the zoo. We can't wait to see you here!


We allow licensed and trained service animals, please check in with staff when you arrive. No pets or companion animals are allowed on Zoo grounds.


*The Hutchinson Zoo will be closed prior to the event.*
