Know Before You Go

What is ZooBrew?

Please have all bags ready for bag check upon entry.

If I'm a member, can I buy ZooBrew tickets for a friend?

How do I receive my online ZooBrew ticket?

Are ZooBrew tickets or drink tickets refundable?

ZooBrew admission tickets and drink tickets are non-refundable and non-transferrable to another ZooBrew event. Drink tickets are only available for the night you purchase them and DO NOT roll over to another ZooBrew event.

What can I expect at ZooBrew?

ZooBrew is an adult-only, after-hours fun environment. It’s your chance to see the zoo in a completely different way. The best way to experience ZooBrew is to: dress up according to the theme, purchase brew-exclusive food and beverages, participate in an animal encounter, buy brew-exclusive art made by Hogle Zoo’s resident animals, and learn how to support the zoo’s conservation initiatives.

Where do I buy more drink tickets?

There are several drink ticket sellers and bars throughout the zoo. If one seller or bar has a long line, visit another area, like Oasis Plaza or Rocky Shores. A card is preferred for drink ticket purchases.

Does ZooBrew happen rain or shine?
