The Central Florida Zoo & Botanical Gardens’ popular all-ages event, Family Sunset at the Zoo, is back, offering everyone a chance to enjoy the community institution in a whole new light.
The event takes place every fourth Friday through September. The zoo reopens at 5 p.m. and comes alive with all sorts of fun until the sun goes down. Family Sunset features music at the Wharton-Smith Tropical Splash Ground, inflatable games and, of course, some of your favorite animals along the shaded boardwalks.
The zoo already held one Family Sunset in May. Dates for the remaining evenings are as follows:
June 24 – 5-8 p.m.
July 22 – 5-8 p.m.
Aug. 26 – 5-8 p.m.
Sept. 23 – 5-8 p.m.
The last admission is at 7:30 p.m. for each event. Tickets cost $6 per person when purchased online and $8 per person when purchased at the gate. The event is separate from daytime admission and is not included for annual passholders.
Guests can also bundle and save with the Family 4-Pack for $40, which includes four tickets, four hot dogs and four regular fountain drinks to fuel the whole family for fun.
