## About

A pop star themed evening at WildLanterns, the zoo's winter lantern display. Guests walk a red carpet and strike a pose while the paparazzi snap photos under the glowing lanterns, with music and immersive light displays all around. Kids and grown-ups can make and swap friendship bracelets and visit the Glitter & Glow Bar for face paint, glow makeup and stickers. It suits families with music-loving kids who enjoy dressing up and a little sparkle.
