Wild About Wine

Cheers to all wine lovers – join us for our annual wine-tasting event!  Wild About Wine will feature a variety of red, white, and rose wines from the Toast to the Wild Presenting sponsor – Cavalier Distributing, at 15 different stations throughout the Zoo. Stroll the Zoo sampling wine in your complimentary souvenir glass while listening to great music and visiting the different animal habitats. Food will be available for purchase at our casual dining locations. For our non-wine drinkers, there will be a beer and cocktail station available as well! Food will be available for purchase.

These unique tasting events give guests the opportunity to enjoy an adult-only evening at the Zoo, try beverage samples, experience up-close animal encounters, and more!

Wild About Wine begins at 7:00 pm and is rain or shine. This event is for guests 21 and up, no exceptions.
