GLOW


GLOW, Sydney’s most anticipated light festival, returns to Sydney Zoo in Eastern Creek from 9–31 May.

A limited pre-sale is now on, with all tickets 50% off using the code GLOW50 at checkout — but hurry, the offer ends 29 April or once the allocation is gone.

This year, GLOW is shining brighter than ever before, featuring over 200 brand-new animal lanterns and interactive light sculptures, handcrafted from enough fabric to cover more than six football fields. These vibrant works of art have been brought to life through a creative collaboration between local and international artists. Each lantern is meticulously hand-painted and paired with immersive soundscapes and lighting to create an unforgettable journey through colour, light, and imagination.

Guests will follow the immersive GLOW Light Walk, venturing through a glowing path of wonder. Step through the jaws of a colossal crocodile, slide through the tentacles of a towering octopus, and watch hundreds of illuminated butterflies flutter in a dazzling display of motion. Along the way, don’t miss the Smooth FM Roller Rink, the magical aquarium after-dark experience, and the chance to explore the largest Reptile and Nocturnal House in the world.

The excitement continues in the vibrant GLOW Zone, where guests can enjoy thrilling rides, plenty of FREE activities, and endless Instagram-worthy moments. Light up a glowing heart in a rhythmic drumming race, make music on a giant walkable piano, and slide through the colourful Carnival Cruise Line Funcastle. Don’t forget to take in the view from the glowing 7NEWS Ferris Wheel, then grab a bite from a range of food trucks or unwind at the GLOW Bar.

Set against the unique backdrop of Sydney Zoo in Eastern Creek, GLOW is more than just a light show — it’s where wildlife, art, and imagination come together. It’s an experience like no other and the perfect night out for all ages.

GLOW at Sydney Zoo is also an accessible and inclusive event, designed for varying levels of mobility with no hills or steps.
