What’s New
This year, Zoo Brew is raising a glass to the turtle! One of nature’s most resilient reptiles, you’ll get the chance to explore how the Zoo works to protect turtle species and their habitats through conservation research and education.

General admission now starts at 6:30 p.m., giving guests an extra half hour to explore, sip and soak in the Zoo after hours.

Your Admission Matters
By attending Zoo Brew, you’re helping the DZS protect turtles and the habitats they depend on. These animals face serious challenges — from habitat loss to illegal collection — but together, we can help ensure they thrive for generations to come.

Every ticket supports the Zoo’s conservation efforts and the care of the more than 2,000 animals who live here. Sip, stroll and be part of the change.
