This Christmas, Accra Zoo transforms into more than just a sanctuary of wildlife. It becomes a festive wonderland where every step tells a story. Under the vibrant theme “A Thousand Steps to the Zoo”, the Tobinco Media Group and the Forestry Commission of Ghana invite families, friends, religious bodies, companies looking for partners and adventurers to lace up their shoes, open their hearts, and walk into an unforgettable holiday experience.
Here are six irresistible reasons why your Christmas should be spent at the Accra Zoo:
1. Begin the Christmas with balance.
Let’s be real charley, how often do you hear about unwinding before Christmas? It’s usually the other way around.
Instead of rushing into the season, why not take a few steps, like a thousand steps to unwind, burn some calories, and feel energized. A healthy start makes for a happier celebration.
2. A Thousand Steps of Discovery
Every stride through the zoo is a step into wonder. From majestic lions to playful monkeys, the journey is designed to feel like a treasure hunt. Children and adults alike will find themselves counting steps in numbers, but more importantly in memories. So don’t hold back, come with your cameras, selfie sticks and the whole family and squad and capture beautiful memories together.
3. Festive Entertainment for All Ages
The organizers have curated performances that blend Ghanaian cultural rhythms with Christmas classics. Imagine carols sung by participants, children under the canopy of trees. Entertainment here is by us and for us, and it isn’t just on stage (at least not on 20th December) it’s woven into the very atmosphere.
4. Wildlife Meets Christmas Magic
What’s Christmas without a touch of magic? Magic isn’t far away or mysterious, there is magic at the Accra Zoo. The animals become part of the celebration. Special guided tours will highlight fascinating wildlife stories and connecting the season of giving with the importance of conservation.
5. Food and Fun
Christmas is incomplete without food, and the Accra Zoo will be buzzing with stalls offering Ghanaian delicacies alongside holiday treats. From hot Ghanaian breakfast to spiced meat pies, jollof; every bite adds flavor to the celebration. Families can picnic under shaded trees, turning the zoo into a giant dining hall of joy.
6. Community, Connection, and Celebration
The theme “A Thousand Steps at the Zoo” isn’t just about walking, it’s about walking together. The event is designed to foster community spirit, bringing people from all walks of life to celebrate unity, joy, and hope. Whether you’re meeting old friends or making new ones, the zoo becomes a hub of shared laughter and festive cheer.
So, this Christmas, don’t just stay indoors and surf the internet, step out, step into nature, and step out with the Tobinco Media Group and the Forestry Commission of Ghana. The experiences promise to be more than an event; it will be a journey of discovery, festivity, and togetherness
