Grog with the Gorillas

Swing by for a sensational summer evening at Grog with the Gorillas—a wildly fun fundraiser to benefit our curious apes!

Get ready for a night of wild encounters and wondrous flavors as we raise funds to build a climbing structure for the orangutans at Utah’s Hogle Zoo. This new climbing structure will promote play, exploration, and enrichment for these intelligent and gentle giants, offering more opportunities to thrive year-round.

Your evening begins with grazing stations featuring bold, exotic flavors, chilled cocktails, and unforgettable animal moments—including rare up-close experiences with our great apes and the passionate people who care for them. Expect a lively atmosphere, meaningful conservation connection, and a summer night you’ll never forget.
