Whether it’s hot or cool, what better place is there to unwind on a summer evening than at the Zoo? The park is open late on six Wednesday evenings this summer. A different live band will play each week, and the entire Zoo will be open for strolling. Say hello to your favorite warm-weather animals such as the elephants and hippos, and peek into the animal buildings, which will be open until 8:45 p.m. (the aviary closes at dusk).
Purchase dinner from the Zoo’s Flamingo Café and Lakeview Place restaurants, or bring a picnic and dine alfresco. The Zoo closes at its regular weekday time of 5 p.m., and then re-opens at 6 p.m. for these events. The first Wednesday’s (June 29) musical entertainment is the 1980s cover band 2nd Wave. On July 6, 3D, an acoustic pop/rock band, will take the stage. The bands play between 6:15 p.m. and 8:45 p.m. If it rains, they’ll be in the U.S. Bank Gathering Place. Remaining bands are TBA.
Tri City National Bank customers: Get a free ride on the Penzeys Spices Carousel. Stop in to any branch after June 1 and get a free-ride ticket while supplies last. (Valid June 29, July 6, 13, 20, 27, and Aug. 3, only during evening Sunset Zoofaris. Does not include Zoo admission or parking. One ticket per person per bank visit.)
