Ready to explore the zoo without the kiddos? Central Florida Zoo recently announced a hilarious new event to their lineup of adults-only events.
Held on February 21, 2019 at 5:30pm, Zoolarious is a one-night only comedy event including exclusive zoo access, a cocktail hour with animal encounters, and a special improv comedy show from SAK Comedy Lab, Orlando’s top rated live improv comedy club.
The fun kicks off with a full hour of exclusive zoo access for attendees, followed by a cocktail hour. During the cocktail hour, beer, wine and food will be available for purchase. You’ll also have the opportunity to partake in up-close animal encounters.
The comedy show begins at 7pm, when Central Florida Zoo pros will share tidbits about daily Zoo life. SAK Comedy Lab improv actors will then take over, performing hysterical on-the-spot skits.
Bonus: the event will be in support of the Zoo’s animal wellness, conservation and education programs. So, all those laughs will be for a great cause!
Tickets are $25/person, or $20 if you’re a Zoo Annual Pass holder.
