Educator Soirée at the Zoo
October 3, 2026
6 – 8 p.m.
Teachers, enjoy an evening just for you and your guest at Zoo Atlanta!
Stroll the Zoo after hours as you unwind and enjoy the magical experience of exploring the Zoo at twilight in this exclusive, adults-only event. Get up close to wildlife with animal encounters and keeper presentations. Take a whimsical spin upon hand-carved wooden animal figures on the Endangered Species Carousel. Meet Zoo Educators, network with fellow teachers, and discover exciting ways to bring the Zoo and its resources into your classroom.
Make your evening a little more delicious! Stop by Safari Snack Shack when you enter the Zoo; or meander up to SweetWater Beer Garden to grab an adult beverage, snack, or personal-sized pizza from Willie B.’s.
Plus, your ticket could win you something wild! Registered participants are automatically entered into our many raffles for your chance to win a ZooMobile, Virtual Field Trip, Wild Encounters, and more!

All guests must be at least 18 years of age, and children will not be allowed in the Zoo during this event. Educators must present a valid educator ID or relevant documentation and a photo ID to enter. Must be 18+ to attend.
