Summer Nights
Fridays and Saturdays in the Summertime
When evenings cool down, Brookfield Zoo heats up at Summer Nights! The zoo is a different experience in the evening as guests enjoy beautiful landscapes, music, up-close encounters with animals, and enhanced dining and refreshments. A laser light show creates an exciting finale at the close of each evening.
