Denver Zoo’s daytime fall programming, which the zoo calls Wild Fall, runs during regular zoo hours through Oct. 31. It is included with daytime admission, which makes it the low-key alternative to the ticketed evening Boo at the Zoo nights that begin Oct. 2.
The zoo’s event page promises fall fun for all ages, with cryptid creatures and costumed characters around the grounds and pumpkin carving on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. An optional Fall Attractions Pass is $14.95, or $9.95 for members. Members can visit anytime without a reservation.
Know before you go
