Put on your party dress and get ready to roar, at Denver Zoo because the Do at the Zoo cocktail party and fundraiser will be held Thursday, June 16. Stay up late with the city’s real party animals.

Do at the Zoo is Denver Zoo’s largest and most popular fundraiser. Only at Do at the Zoo can party goers wine and dine with exotic animals while the sun sets over the city skyline. Sunset is also when most of the zoo's largest critters, like lions and elephants, are most active. The event features delicious dishes from over 60 of Denver’s best restaurants as well as cocktails and craft beers from the area’s finest breweries and distilleries. There will also be live music by the Gin Doctors, Dragondeer, Brightenstar, and Colorado Southern. 

For the full list of restaurants and breweries, follow this link. Valet parking is $10, and self parking is complimentary.

Tickets for the event are $150 per person until June 1, when the price will go up to $175. Dress is cocktail attire and animal prints and safari hats and outfits are encouraged. Proceeds from the evening help support the Zoo and all of its daily operations, including the care and feeding of almost 4,000 animals. Tickets can be purchased from the zoo's website.
