Knoxville — Tickets are now on sale for BOO! at the Zoo, Knoxville’s largest Halloween event.
A Halloween tradition for 32 years, this event features 12 nights of safe and not-too-scary fun, with activities like trick-or-treating through the zoo, the Monster Mash Dance Party and riding the Scary-Go-Round, East Tennessee's only 'haunted' carousel.
This family-friendly event runs over three weekends: Friday through Sunday, Oct. 12-14; Thursday through Sunday, Oct. 18-21 and Oct. 25-28, from 5:30-8:30 p.m.
A special night exclusively for zoo annual passholders will be held on Thursday, Oct. 11 from 5:30 – 8:30 p.m.
