Wine Gone Wild 2026

Saturday, March 28, 2026

6:00 – 8:30 p.m. General Admission

Wine Gone Wild is back and wilder than ever! Join us for an evening of incredible local wines, spirits, live music, animal encounters, spa zone and more! This party with a purpose supports education programs, conservation efforts, and care for the animals at the Zoo.

This year’s event also features evening access to Sean Kenney’s Nature Pop! presented by Jim Click Holmes Tuttle. As you wind their way through the Zoo’s scenic pathways you will encounter playful, gravity defying masterpieces, including a towering 7-foot polar bear mother and her cubs, a prancing fox, a majestic lion standing on alert, and intricately detailed dragonfly with light filtering through its outstretched wings.
