Familiar holiday traditions take on a wild twist at the San Diego Zoo with the return of Jungle Bells by California Coast Credit Union. The Zoo, located at 2920 Zoo Drive in San Diego, will be aglow with holiday cheer and decorations, festive music, roaming entertainers, special food items and sweets, and awe-inspiring views of wildlife.  Jungle Bells is scheduled from Friday, December 8, 2023 through Monday, January 1, 2024 with extended hours, except for Sunday, December 24 (when no Jungle Bells activities are scheduled).  

Join in Reindeer Games and trek through Northern Frontier’s Holiday Forest, or visit Santa and his helpers, Zoo characters Dr. Harry Lion, Churchill Polar Bear, Sydney Koala, and all their friends. Enjoy an abundance of culinary delights at the Zoo’s many restaurants and food stands, and shop for one-of-a-kind gifts at the Zoo’s numerous retail locations. When you give a gift from San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance, you are directly supporting wildlife conservation around the world. Guests won’t want to miss the nightly magic of Aurora, a twice-per-night spectacular that blends 3D projection mapping, music and lights.
