Bring the family to Brookfield Zoo on Monday, December 31, to ring in the New Year at its Zoo Year’s Eve celebration. The festivities, which take place on the final evening of Holiday Magic, presented by ComEd and Meijer, get underway at 6p.m. The Holly Jolly theater will be filled with music provided by a DJ, who will have the zoo rockin’ and rollin’ along with fun games, party favors, prizes and more. The early countdown culminates with confetti cannons being set off at 8:00 p.m. Families with children under age 6 are also welcomed to venture over to Hamill Family Play Zoo, where kids can make noisemakers while also enjoying an early, kid-friendly countdown. Guests should park in Brookfield Zoo’s main parking lot (First Avenue and 31st Street). For further information, visit CZS.org/HolidayMagic.
