Craft beer fans will enjoy a wide variety of tastings from the surrounding area’s finest specialty breweries, as well as other libations, including premium wines and non-alcoholic beverages. Guests will embark on a culinary adventure as they enjoy tasty dishes and desserts from popular Coachella Valley restaurants and caterers.

The evening also includes live entertainment on stages set throughout the park from bands including Giselle Woo & The Night Owls, Bob & Donna Brown, Rick Shelley and Vintage Vibe. Attendees also can explore the African section of the park and see zebras, cheetahs, warthogs, oryx and other animals.

“Brew at the Zoo is a major fundraiser for the zoo and it gets bigger and bigger every year,” said Dawn Petrick, Director of Park Services and Guest Relations. “It offers a spectacular setting with great food, unlimited beer samplings and lively entertainment. We like to say guests are ‘Saving Wildlife One Beer at a Time’ and supporting our mission of desert conservation through preservation, education and appreciation.”
