Brew at the Zoo is BACK for Summer 2026!

Experience the Zoo like never before. Soak in the stunning views of Roanoke, enjoy the peaceful fresh mountain air and forest setting, and experience the Zoo in a whole new way… after hours.

We’re excited to bring back Brew at the Zoo in a Family-Friendly environment with three Friday summer evenings you won’t want to miss:
June 5, 2026
July 10, 2026 (featuring Twisted Track Brewpub, Brady's Distillery, Firecraft food truck, music by Randolph Thomas)
August 7, 2026

5:00 PM – 8:00 PM

Stroll through the Zoo with a drink in hand, enjoy a relaxed musical atmosphere, and connect with wildlife in a unique setting. Our Education Team will also be onsite with ambassador animals for a special meet-and-greet experience.

Food truck on-site (Firecraft)
Drinks available (per person limit - 1 included with ticket price)

Please note: This is a special after-hours event and requires a separate ticket (not included with general admission). Indoor exhibits, such as the aviary, will be closed, but many animals will still be visible throughout the Zoo.

Whether you're coming for the views, the animals, or just a unique night out, Brew at the Zoo is the perfect way to spend a summer evening. Mark your calendars and get ready for one of the best summer evenings in Roanoke.
