ZooBoo Event Dates
Sensory Saturday: Your Great Plains Zoo works to be an inclusive place of fun, education and discovery! This year we have added an additional hour to ZooBoo to allow those with sensory processing issues to experience the event. During this time, the capacity allowed will be low. We ask that you please not reserve a ticket for this time if you don't require it to allow others that do to have a ZooBoo experience to last a lifetime! Grab bags during this hour will also include a sensory item for these guests.
Pricing: In order to provide a better guest experience and promote a safe, socially distanced experience, each ZooBOO event will be capacity managed. Pre-purchase tickets online to get a discount!
