The Santa Barbara Zoo invites visitors to stay late and enjoy the longer days with After Hours at the Zoo, a chance to spend more time exploring the zoo. After Hours at the Zoo happens 5-8 p.m. every Wednesday, June 1 through July 27.
Visitors can ride the train; buy food, including chicken or tri-tip picnic dinners and s’mores kits; and hear live music. While some animals will already be in for the night, many will still be out and about to view during the evening hours.
After Hours at the Zoo is free with zoo admission or zoo membership; online reservations are required. To make reservations for After Hours at the Zoo, click here.
