Discover an all new drive-through Holiday Lights Spectacular at Roger Williams Park Zoo beginning Thursday, December 10 – Sunday, January 10, 2021 (closed on 12/24 and 12/25). Made possible by Rhode Island Commerce’s HArT Recovery Grant Program, the month-long light festival features festive larger-than-life luminous displays and over 1.5 million illuminated lights.

Celebrate the magic of the season during this festive new holiday tradition. Immerse yourself in a dazzling display of lights throughout the Zoo while staying warm and safe inside your car.

The trail will be open every night, excluding Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, from 5:00 – 9:30 pm. Gates will close at 10:00 pm. Tickets are online sales ONLY and sold for each half hour (time slots are arrival windows to the Zoo and aren’t reflective of trail exploration times). Absolutely no tickets will be sold at the gate. Tickets are $25 per vehicle; members $20 per vehicle.  Tickets may be purchased at rwpzoo.org/holidaylights.

It’s not every board meeting that you get to meet a tamandua! 😍

This curious critter made an appearance at the RWPC Board Meeting this morning at the @rwpzoo Education Center. Huge thank you to Amy Roberts, Andrea Stein, Anthony Polite, and Kim Warren from the Zoo team for letting us meet Oblio and sharing so many interesting facts about the tamandua (a type of anteater!). Oblio brought many professional insights to the meeting, too 🐜

Visit the Zoo to learn more about tamanduas and other amazing animals!

Winter walks 🍂> January blues 🥶 Take a walk with us at Roger Williams Park! We visited the trail along Elm Lake near the softball field – a short, easy trail with stunning frosty lake views (especially during golden hour) and woodsy path. Shout-out to @pvdparks for maintaining the many beautiful trails at the Park!

Before hitting the trail, please note that the only way to access this path is via the Park Avenue entrance while Maple Avenue and Pine Hill Avenue are currently closed. Find parking along Frederick C. Green Memorial Blvd. right when you turn into the park!
