We’ll provide ample, free parking and a drop-off area for limousines as well as ride-share services such as Uber or Lyft.

WHAT TO EXPECT

Jazzoo takes place outdoors on the Zoo grounds. Upon entry, we’ll provide you with a beverage tray that doubles as a map of food, drink, and entertainment locations. Due to the timing and nature of the event, most of the Zoo's animals will not be viewable.

Wear your most creative black tie attire
Let your imagination run wild! Dress to impress in sophisticated black tie with a playful twist inspired by the wonders of the animal kingdom. We encourage you to channel the spirit of the zoo while keeping it elegant and chic.
