Lincoln Park Zoo Chicago #Nightatthezoo Is Adult Fun

Lincoln Park Zoo’s Night At The Zoo offers more than just views of the zoo’s animals & gardens. There were food vendors and yes there was also adult beverages vendors servicing beer and wine for purchase.  Night At The Zoo had a boom DJ, games for my friends and I to play.

Lincoln Park Zoo Chicago “Night At The Zoo” Must Do’s

Ride the carousel: You can find near the AT&T Endangered Species section the carousel.  I felt like a big kid going around on the carousel with the wind blowing through my hair.  Best of the carousel ride is FREE! 

Listen to the Live DJs: The DJs on handle offered basically any type of music you would like.  There was a DJ playing top 40, 90s, oldies, hip-hop and electronic. 

Sip while touring the Zoo:  Most of Lincoln Park Zoo’s animal exhibits were open while my friends and I sipped on adult beverages.

Lincoln Park Zoo Chicago #Nightatthezoo MY Final Thoughts

I found the event fun.  I did however personally thought the event was a little pricey not to include a drink and or a food ticket.  Food and drinks can be purchased separately.  Events like Grits & Biscuits and The Makossa Cookout are a little less costly.  The group that puts the event on says a large portion of the proceeds benefit Lincoln Park Zoo and helps the zoo stay free and open 365 days a year.  So for that reason, I’m going to give them a pass on the cost of the event ticket.  I believe the pricing is tiered.  The closer to the event that you purchase your ticket the more it cost.  Honestly, my friends and I purchased our tickets the week of. I was also happy there wasn’t the large crowd you would get on a regular day at the zoo.  No kids!  This may be one time was I happy to adult with other adults!  I had a good time.  This was something I had been wanting to do for a while and I glad I did.  You can learn more about Lincoln Park Zoo and all of it’s events here.
