Party with a purpose at the Zoo’s 33rd annual Zoobilee presented by BankRI. Join us on Saturday, June 28th for a night of roaring fun, all for a great cause! Indulge in delicious bites from dozens of the area’s top restaurants and sip on refreshing cocktails. Dance the night away under the stars and get to know some of your favorite furry (and feathery) friends with special encounters.

Plus, your ticket helps save wildlife and wild places! Every dollar raised at Zoobilee supports the Zoo’s mission of conservation and education.

All food samples are included, and cash bars are available. This is an adults-only evening event (21+) and no person under the age of 21 will be permitted (including infants).

Current Zoo members receive a $25 discount off each general admission ticket (limit 2 at the member rate). Discount will automatically apply at checkout.
