Edinburgh Zoos Giant Lanterns
Join us for a magical evening as Edinburgh Zoo is transformed into a glowing world of colour and light for the spectacular Giant Lanterns event. This enchanting after-dark experience features over 600 hand-crafted lanterns, creating an illuminated trail filled with shimmering sea creatures, glowing jellyfish, giant whales, coral scenes, and imaginative underwater displays.
Wander along the beautifully lit 1.3 km route and enjoy the atmosphere as lanterns light up the zoo grounds in a completely new way. This isn’t a daytime zoo visit – it’s an immersive night-time adventure designed to spark wonder and bring the magic of the ocean to life.
A perfect winter outing for all ages, full of photo opportunities, sparkling colours and a lovely festive feel – a truly unforgettable evening at the zoo. 🌙💙
