Safari Nights Concert Series Featuring: Ice House

Original artists and tribute bands will fill the Dallas Zoo with music during the Safari Nights concert series Powered by Breeze Energy.

For 11 consecutive Saturday nights, May 6 to July 15, guests can enjoy nature and live music on shady Cat Green. Bring blankets or lawn chairs to watch the show, or reserve a private cabana that includes chairs and fans under a tent.

During extended Zoo hours, get close to stars of the Animal Adventures outreach program, attend a keeper chat, and catch a special presentation of Wonders of the Wild presented by Kimberly-Clark.

Events and activities begin at 5 p.m. with bands going on around 7 p.m. Food will be available for purchase along with soft drinks, cold beer, and wine, or pack your own food and have a picnic.

Gates open on Saturdays at 9 a.m. and parking is $8 per vehicle (free for members). Want to avoid traffic and not worry about driving?
