All-Day
El Paso Zoo
4001 E. Paisano, El Paso, Texas 79905
Sponsored by Truly Nolen, Bug Fest will be buzzing with all kinds of bugs and insects from spiders, scorpions, crickets, to Madagascar hissing cockroaches and much more.
Guests can get up close and personal with these creepy critters in large bug rooms while learning about the importance of bugs in the ecosystem.
Bug Fest provides an opportunity to learn about the different types of bugs, their habitats, and their behaviors.
Visitors will traverse through a decorated labyrinth of creepy crawlers!
Others will get the heebie-jeebies at the Cockroach Corner exhibit!
And, if you are brave, join us for a Bug Tasting event where you will sample tasty treats made with edible bugs!
Come and bug out at the zoo.
