About this event
Roger Williams Park Zoo's Jack-O-Lantern Spectacular, fills the zoo with more than 5,000 glowing jack-o'-lanterns and calls the night New England's premier fall experience. Timed tickets are sold online only and must be purchased in advance. Extra experiences include an evening virtual-reality funfair and the Soaring Eagle Zip Ride, which glides 115 feet above ground for same-night ticket holders. Character meet-and-greets and a sensory-friendly hour on the Wetlands Trail are layered onto selected nights.
Our take: Buy the timed ticket online before you leave home, since general tickets are sold online only.
