Zigong Lanterns Light‑up Toronto Zoo “Glow in the Wild”, Building An Immersive Nature‑Themed Night‑time Experience

Toronto Zoo’s large‑scale night event Glow in the Wild has opened to the public. Rooted in traditional Zigong lantern craftsmanship, this exhibition features massive light installations spread across the zoo walking paths. Visitors can wander past magical mushroom groves, magnificent peacock displays, butterfly‑flower scenes, heron bird figures, oversized insect sculptures, underwater‑themed archways and the glowing Tree of Life. These lantern artworks vividly recreate rainforests, ocean depths and fantasy woodlands, quickly becoming popular photo spots for guests.

Built to withstand Canada’s wide outdoor temperature swings, all lanterns use sturdy steel frames, weather‑resistant silk fabric and waterproof LED lights. Our team delivered end‑to‑end support, including custom design, full production and on‑site technical guidance.

This lantern show breathes new life into the zoo after dark and drives significant evening visitor traffic. It also offers a proven complete lighting solution for zoos and theme parks looking to develop their own night‑tour attractions.
