Christmas in Odense ZOO

Look forward to experiencing this year's Christmas at the ZOO, where a world of Christmas decorations, magical lights, fun elf games, and a very special surprise – Santa Claus himself – awaits!

The ZOO's largest and most spectacular Christmas event opens on Friday, November 22 at 4 PM, when over one million Christmas lights will be switched on for the first time. From then on, a whole month of cozy Christmas activities will follow.

Embark on an adventure in the ZOO, where the park is beautifully decorated for the season. Marvel at the impressive 33 kilometers of string lights that transform the ZOO into an enchanting Christmas wonderland, and visit Santa in his brand-new gift workshop – a new feature this year!

Once again, there will be Christmas stalls filled with fragrant and delicious holiday specialties. You can also meet the ZOO's own elves, Zoofus and Zoofie, and enjoy their festive elf show on selected days.

Look forward to a magical Christmas at the ZOO!
