Follow the firefly through the darkness

What happens when we don’t just tell a story about nature, but let you walk right through it? Find out during the renewed edition of Burgers’ Light.

Discover new forms of light and darkness along the route, and meet animals that each respond to them in their own way. In the animal world, light means far more than simply seeing where you are going. Some animals use light to find a mate, while others only become active after dark. There are species that can produce their own light, and others that have adapted to the rhythm of day and night in remarkable ways.

A spectacular adventure

Burgers’ Zoo has developed the concept in house in close collaboration with a lighting specialist. Burgers’ Light offers a powerful combination of storytelling, technology and nature in a brand new and unique experience at Burgers’ Zoo.
