Boo at the Akron Zoo is a non-scary trick or treat experience for all ages that runs Saturdays and Sundays from
10:30 (Presale)-7:30pm. All guests must purchase tickets, either an observer or treater, before entering the
event and can be purchased presale or day of the event. Presale tickets gain entry at 10:30 a.m. and all treat
stations close by 7:30 p.m. Treaters will have a candy passport allowing them to collect candy at each station.
The entire zoo is open for guests to enjoy.
Volunteers staff each treat station in zoo provided costumes and are paired with a zoo volunteer (EdZOOcator). This allows questions or concerns to be addressed quickly. We need approximately 36 volunteers for each of the three shifts to comfortably staff the event. Volunteers that are part of a large group will be split up in pairs. We are not able to keep groups together. Boo occurs rain or shine, please dress accordingly as you will be outside. Costumes are designed to go over t-shirts, sweatshirts and jackets.

Boo at the Zoo is one of your Akron Zoo’s main events. As a non-profit organization, we rely heavily on our revenue from the concessions, gift shop, admissions, carousel, etc. These monies allow us to provide our animals with the best possible care. In addition to our earned revenue, the Akron Zoo receives funding from a Summit County tax levy, private donations, and fundraisers, such as Boo at the Zoo. In order to keep costs low, we rely on assistance from volunteers for this great event.
