Summer Safari Nights at Reid Park Zoo
Every Saturday evening through August 8th!
Beat the heat and explore the outdoors with Reid Park Zoo’s Summer Safari Nights on Friday and Saturday evenings!
Come to Summer Safari Nights, presented by TMC Health and enjoy the Zoo in the cooler evening hours!
Each week will feature keeper chats, animal encounters, artifact stations, giraffe feedings, carousel rides, crafts and games. Face painting and glitter tattoos will be available for purchase. Refresh with dinner and a cold drink at the Flamingo Grill, listen to live music by some of Tucson’s best bands. Take a ride on the Jungle Carousel, and the Event Garden keeps the fun going all night long.
Looking to treat yourself? Grab dinner and a refreshing drink at the Flamingo Grill, then kick back and enjoy live music from some of Tucson’s favorite local bands. Add a little sparkle with face painting or glitter tattoos—perfect for making the night extra memorable.
There will be a different theme each week, so every visit brings something new and plenty of photo opportunities to remember a great evening.
