The “wildest” party of the year, Zoofari, returns to the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium! Zoofari will be held at the Columbus Zoo on Saturday, June 18, 2022. This year, they’ll be celebrating 50 years of Zoofari!
Party like an animal at this annual adult-only festival with 60+ of Central Ohio’s best restaurants and bars serving their signature dishes, as well as live music on several stages throughout the zoo from 7 pm – 12 am.
Your evening will be spent walking through the Zoo tasting food from fantastic restaurants, sipping drinks, and listening to live music from great bands.

Many of the animals go in for the night and won’t be on view during Zoofari, but select regions will be open until 9 pm.
If you want to help out and save money on your admission, you can volunteer for a 3 hour shift and enjoy the rest of the event before or after of your shift. Check for volunteer opportunities here.
