Immerse yourself in a medley of art installations, musical performances, photo booths and Insta-worthy food and drinks at the Festive Pop-Up Market. Be sure to stop by the wildlife-themed Personalisation Workstops and get snap happy with the light installations. Let our nocturnal entourage of hedgehogs, owls and more fascinate you, and listen to stories galore from their keepers. Walk away with an owl selfie, and a priceless memory of feeding hedgehogs!

At Night Safari, channel your inner Sherlock Holmes and trek through the Walking Trails to solve the mystery of Wildlife Cluedo while uncovering the cool adaptations of our animal residents. Receive an exclusive collectible pin as a reward for your investigative efforts when you complete the trail.

After meeting our Malayan tigers at Night Safari, encounter their virtual cousin Tairee the white tiger and the rest of the Creature Crew at Rainforest Lumina—a multimedia night walk on the wild side. Inspired by the real animals in Night Safari and Singapore Zoo, each member of the Creature Crew represents a unique virtue. Pick one that resonates best with you and uncover their powers during the experience.

For an extra wild visit, indulge in the Christmas edition of the popular Safari Adventurer Tour. Aside from enjoying a cosy buggy-and-walking adventure with an expert guide, help our elephant keepers put together a Christmas hamper for our biggest residents and gift it to them during an exclusive feeding session.
