Night Safari – Wild About Twilight


Year-end family trips and couples’ getaways have been curtailed by COVID-19 travel restrictions, but that doesn’t mean you have to spend the holidays stuck at home. Night Safari is hosting a Wild About Twilight event happening now till 27th December 2020 with new exhibits along its four walking trails, photo spots and quizzes with rewards.

As added incentives, there’ll also be admission promos, dining sets and 1-for-1 beer, and discounted merch for you to bring home. Clear your leave, wrangle up the kids and book a slot online for a wildly good time with your friends and family – here’s what you can look forward to: 


Secrets of Night Safari – walking trails with glow-in-the-dark clues


Night Safari Wild About Twilight - Digital Trail

To dispel the notion that a trip to Night Safari is just to look at animals and snap pics of them in their natural environments, digital trails have been set up across the park this year for visitors to discover Secrets of the Night.

Night Safari Tram Ride

Learn about the origins and fun facts behind iconic elements of Night Safari which delight both first-timers and repeat visitors alike. 

These include the tranquil yet educational tram rides, the famed “Creatures Of The Night Show”, how lighting is designed to cast a moonlit effect on the nocturnal animals, and the specially designed moats which create an optical illusion and make the animals appear nearer than they actually are.


Secret spots for Instagram-worthy photos & romantic vibes


Besides being the very first night zoo in the world, what sets Night Safari apart from other wildlife parks is the sheer aesthetics factor. Wild About Twilight transforms Night Safari into a picturesque animal wonderland with Instagram-worthy spots aplenty.

In between marvelling at wildlife and immersing yourself in the walking trails and interactive apps, have your camera at-the-ready for gorgeous glow-in-the-dark setups.

There’ll also be nuggets of info about the animals as you course through each trail and selected exhibits.

Augmented Reality Animals - Armadillo Breadcrumbs App

For some added fun, the app even allows you to beam Augmented Reality (AR) versions of selected animals into your real-life surroundings. Snap a pic of yourself and your loved ones cosying up to a cute AR armadillo and aardvark, interacting with them through pats and poses. 

There’s an in-app camera function with built-in Night Safari photo frames and hashtags, so you can save your shots to your phone gallery and share them on Insta.

Breadcrumbs App - Animal Quiz

All that wildlife info you picked up throughout the digital trail will come in handy when you do the in-app quiz. Don’t stress about it being a test you have to memorise for, ‘cause all you have to do is answer some easy-peasy questions to rack up XP points and unlock rewards. These can be redeemed for limited edition campaign merch.
