Taronga Zoo Sydney has announced the return of their Lights for the Wild event as part of the program for Vivid Sydney. Running from 24 May to 15 June, Taronga Zoo will be transformed into a dazzling world of moving projections, giant light sculptures and amazing 270-degree cinema experience.

This year each installation and light sculpture will tell the fascinating story of the zoo's wildlife conservation efforts, with all ticket proceeds going directly back to conservation and wildlife care.

Your journey will begin at Taronga's heritage-listed main entrance that will be brought to life by an incredible moving animal projection show.

Walk through the gates and explore an illuminated trail winding through the stunning grounds of Taronga Zoo, showcasing awe-inspiring giant multimedia light sculptures including the magnificent Sumatran Tiger and her gorgeous tiger cubs, the vividly coloured Marine Turtle, a swarm of tiny buzzing bees and their larger-than-life gorilla family, plus a whole cast of other captivating creatures.

Take time out and catch the multi-award winning animated short film favourite at Taronga Centenary Theatre, reimagined as an amazing 270-degree cinema experience.
