Houston Zoo Lights was an ongoing production created and installed by Hanzon studios for the Houston Zoo. Sponsored by TXU Energy, it has been running every year since its inception in 2012 and has grown in magnitude each year. In 2016, Zoo Lights was the largest holiday light show in the nation and drawing the largest audience of any show of its kind. It combines the majesty of the animal kingdom with an emphasis on conservation and a sense of wonder the whole family can enjoy together. Features of the show include; a lighted castle, miniature village complete with working model trains, holiday disco, animatronic zebra, luminous garden, 30′ Christmas tree hung with hand-made ornaments, lighted plant and animal sculptures, a bedazzled art car, and countless other surprising and delightful creations, all designed and crafted in the Hanzon studio.
