Deets: Trick or treat from the comfort of your car at Boo Drive Thru!

Start your engines and prepare for some spooky family fun during Boo Drive Thru, sponsored by Mars Wrigley, a special edition of our children’s trick-or-treating event!

Hosted by Friends of the National Zoo (FONZ), Boo Drive Thru will be held October 24 and 25 from 4:30 to 9:30 p.m. at the Smithsonian’s National Zoo. Pack your car full of ghouls, ghosts, princesses and superheroes and cruise down the Zoo's North Road, all in support of FONZ’s mission.

“Boo at the Zoo is one of our most beloved events, and we wanted to be sure that children around the D.C. area have the opportunity to trick or treat at the Zoo this year—while focusing on safety,” says FONZ Executive Director Lynn Mento. “That’s why Boo Drive Thru was born. The whole family can still dress up, see some Halloween sights, and get plenty of delicious candy, all without leaving the car.”

On your drive, you will see witches, vampires, Count Pandula and other supernatural sights — and get a fun photo opportunity — before receiving treat bags stuffed with M&Ms, Twix and more candy. It’s bound to be a fantastic time!
