Extended Hours Are Back this Summer at the El Paso Zoo!

Did you know that June is Zoo and Aquarium month? Well, it is! What better way to celebrate than to a visit to the zoo? Yes, it's hella hot, but the zoo has a great way for you to beat the heat and still enjoy the animals plus lots of other activities: Zoofari Nites!

Zoofari Nites at the El Paso Zoo is back! It's a time where for one Saturday a month you can enjoy the zoo well into the evening hours. The extended evening hours are until 8:30 p.m.and will take place on June 22, July 13 and August 10th.

June 22 kicks off Zoofari Nite with a video game theme! El Paso favorite Dusty Low will take the stage in the Asia plaza from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. Stop by the Wildlife Amphitheater for a "Wild Experience" that includes crafts, live music and special video game themed animal treats!

If you've never experienced the zoo after hours, I highly recommend you do so! It's a great way to beat the El Paso heat and a great activity for both kids and adults! It's also a great opportunity for some awesome selfies!
