Event Questions 

Where should I park? 
Paid parking is available in the Cherokee Avenue parking lot and the Grant Park Gateway parking facility. These lots are owned by the City of Atlanta and are managed by AAA parking. Read more here.  

Go green and get home safely! Consider a carpool, MARTA, or use a rideshare option like LYFT.  Remember, you should never drink and drive. 

Will food or other drinks be available? 
Yes! Limited sampling of various wines and other alcoholic beverages are included with your ticket while supplies last. Food and bars serving full-sized and non-alcoholic drinks will be available for purchase with a card only. Complimentary bottled water will be available while supplies last. Water bottle refill stations are always available. 

Parts of the Zoo (The Ford African Rain Forest, Asian Forest, and the Orkin Children’s Zoo) and bars located there may close earlier in the evening. Don’t worry, drinks are still flowing through the rest of the Zoo!  

Will the entire Zoo be open? Will I see any animals? 
Most of the Zoo will be available for viewing and exploring, but keep in mind, Zoo animals aren’t party animals. They will begin to head into their evening quarters around sunset. Because of this, parts of the Zoo (The Ford African Rain Forest, Asian Forest, and the Orkin Children’s Zoo) and bars located there may close earlier in the evening. Don’t worry, drinks are still flowing through the rest of the Zoo!  

Giant pandas may be viewable during the event. Learn more about giant pandas and Zoo Atlanta’s conservation efforts. Read the latest Zoo Atlanta panda news here! Keep up with the pandas on our Panda Cam. 

Will the rides or attractions be open? 
Complimentary rides on the Endangered Species Carousel will be available until 8 p.m., so plan to arrive early. 

What should I wear? 
Come as you are! Dress comfortably and wear your walking shoes. Don’t forget to consider the weather.
