Brew at the Zoo

Don’t miss the 10th annual Brew at the Zoo! Walk on the wild side as you sample offerings from a variety of breweries and restaurants. Sip some delicious brews and visit with western lowland gorillas, ring-tailed lemurs, pygmy hippos, and other species in the Zoo’s Tropical Forest Pavilion, as well as giraffes, zebras, kangaroos and many other animals. Don’t miss a visit to Aussie Aviary, a seasonal free-flight aviary featuring brightly-colored budgies. The entire zoo, with the exception of the Bird's World building and playground, will be open for this event (weather permitting).

This year only, venture through our Wicked BIG Bugs exhibit, where roles will be reversed as you find yourself looking up into the eyes of an 8-foot-tall tarantula, or at the tail of a mighty emperor scorpion looming 15 feet in the air!

Transportation will be provided to and from the Forest Hills MBTA station and the Zoo. See below for more details.

VIP Perks:

VIP ticket-holders get extra perks, including exclusive food and beer sampling from John Harvards in our VIP tent from 5:00 - 7:00 p.m., event T-shirt, and the chance to hang with two-toed sloth Molasses, along with a few more amazing animal ambassadors! Please note: This is subject to change due to weather and animals' needs.

Thank you!
