Lowry Park Questions or Comments
Park Hours
We were just a bit surprised at the park closing so early in the evening. The zoo closed at 5pm on the day we went. It was summer and it stay light until around 8:30pm. Seems like they could do a lot better by extending the hours of operation. Take Busch Gardens, who has a motto that it just gets better at night. That is the way a theme park should operate.

Night Time at the Zoo
Zoo Boo runs in the evenings, but I believe most of the year the park is closed in the evenings. Kind of wondered why myself Lowry Park Zoo hours are shortened. Plus, with the heat of summer, an evening trip to the zoo would be perfect for families with small children or anyone that wants to beat the heat.
