On Sat., Sep. 22 the North America parking lot and entrance will be closed for our annual Zoo-To-Do fundraiser gala. Please plan to arrive early and park and enter/exit the Zoo through the Africa Region. Parking is likely to fill up by 12 pm. We will resume normal operations on Sun., Sep. 23.
Take your zoo day to the next level and plan to attend a keeper encounter where you can see a range of activities from animal feedings to training sessions. You may need to check the feeding times for some animals at their habitats the day of your visit. (Times subject to change.)
