Zootanical 2026 with a Hint of Tulips will be held on Friday, April 10, 2026, from 5:30–9:00 pm at the world-famous Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden. Zootanical is the premier botanical event that kicks off the Zoo season! 100% of the proceeds provide operating support to the Zoo’s gardens, Horticulture, and Horticultural Outreach & Education.
The event will take place amidst over 100,000 tulips in bloom and will include an organic farm-to-table dinner, creative libations, and much more. This always sold-out event provides brand visibility to a sophisticated, plant-centric audience, and well-connected community leaders.
