Animal Adventure Park to open doors in December for all-new ‘Jungle Bells’

Reindeer, Santa, and hot cocoa – you’ll find all of that and more at Animal Adventure Park this December during their all-new ‘Jungle Bells’ event.

This year, Animal Adventure Park is putting a new spin on the event by hosting Jungle Bells at the park. This will allow guests to enjoy a unique perspective of the animals in a different seasonal setting. 

Jungle Bells will be held from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays through the month of December. Wander down Candy Cane Lane to explore Candy Land, visit the new Reindeer Stable and Reindeer Games Training Center, mail your Christmas lists at the North Pole Mail Box, and sneak into Santa’s Workshop for a quick visit and photo. The joys of the season will be evident around the park for visitors of all ages to enjoy.

The animal residents will be ready to accept guests and treats, boasting their winter coats and plumage. Warm up in the Giraffe Barn while visiting and feeding April, Oliver and Tajiri. 

Primates, warthogs, reptiles, and parrots will have already retired for the season, but you will enjoy meeting the new sloths when entering the new Welcome Center and browsing the gift shop.

Santa’s Workshop will be stocked with hot beverages and sweet treats. The gift shop will be filled with many new items, perfect for holiday gifts.

Dec. 16 and 17 are our ‘Elsa and Anna’ Days. Elsa and Anna are stopping in for the weekend to visit Animal Adventure, and welcome their many fans. Meet, greet, and snap a photo with your cell phone or camera with your favorite Frozen sisters. Photos opportunities with Santa will be available each day of Jungle Bells. 

Any severe weather closings will be posted on all social media, event listings and voicemail. This is an outdoor entertainment event, so be sure to bundle up for the occasion. 

Animal Adventure Park is located at 85 Martin Hill Rd. in Harpursville,N.Y. 13787. You can also visit them on the web at www.theanimaladventurepark.com.
