The Magic of Christmas at London Zoo is a festive season at the zoo running from 21 November 2026 to 3 January 2027, with over 8,000 animals to explore. Visitors can wander a magical Christmas forest to a North Pole HQ, write letters to Santa, craft Christmas crackers and cards, and watch elves host daily game shows. On peak days there are Mrs Claus storytimes, a live musician playing Christmas tunes, a Santa-Mobile parade at lunchtime, and festive animal talks such as 'Bah Humboldt' and 'Capy Christmas'. Meeting Santa in his grotto requires an extra ticket beyond zoo admission.
