Sedgwick County Zoo is doing Night of the Living Zoo on October 22, 23 & 24 from 6:30 p.m. – 8:30 p.m.

Bring your ghouls and goblins for a night of not-too-scary Halloween fun at the Sedgwick County Zoo!

Take a stroll down jack-o-lantern lane, creep up to candy stations and let your spirit come alive!

Advanced tickets:

$6 at area QuikTrip stores, starting Oct. 1

Tickets purchased at gate:

$6 for Zoo members

$8 for nonmembers

Children 2 and under do not need a ticket.

Winter Wednesdays


Every Wednesday November 2010 through February 2011: 10:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.

Grab your coats, throw on your mittens and head over to the Sedgwick County Zoo for Winter Wednesdays! Spend the day in the refreshing outdoors for a discounted admission price every Wednesday in November through February.

You can sign up here for a ticket for free admission to a museum of your choice on September 25, 2010. I love this day because I can take my daughter to Exploration Place for free! (She's still free, but my husband and I don't have to shell out $20 to take her on this day.) Last year, we went with my sister-in-law and her kids, so it was a good family day! I've listed the participating museums in Kansas (the cities are listed under the museum's name).
