Members-Only Nights in June

During Nights in June, sponsored by Habush Habush & Rottier S.C.®, Zoo Pass and Platypus Circle members are invited to an evening at the Zoo just for them. Enjoy one of three nights filled with entertainment, food trucks and some of your favorite animals. Shake a tail feather to music sponsored by North Shore Bank — check out Our House at the Generac Zoo Terrace and Doug Syme Duo at the Horicon Bank Flamingo Patio. New this year, if you’ve enjoyed seeing Reilly perform at Kids Nights in the past, you’ll get the chance to enjoy their music at Nights in June at the Landmark Landing! Watch fun and educational conservation-themed performances by Kohl’s Wild Theater. Check out this year’s summer exhibit, Powerful Pollinators, presented by Meijer. All Members will get free entrance to the exhibit during Nights in June. That way you can save the coupons on your Zoo Pass for another day at the Zoo (Have your Zoo Pass and photo ID handy.) Satisfy your roaring appetite while supporting the animals! Purchase dinner from a variety of food trucks located throughout the Zoo. Food trucks donate 15% of their proceeds to the Sponsor an Animal program. You can also find food and drinks available at the Zoo’s concession stands. Discover fascinating animal facts at biofact carts stationed around the Zoo or take in an animal talk given by Zoo Pride volunteers. Take a tour of the Zoo’s three gardens in the Northwestern Mutual Family Farm: Backyard Bird, Pollinator and Heritage Gardens. Chat with Master Gardener volunteers. Hop aboard the Penzeys Carousel and the North Shore Bank Safari Train. These attractions will run until 8 p.m. (weather permitting) at regular prices. This event is only for Zoological Society members and their minor children and/or grandchildren covered on the membership. Zoo Pass and Platypus Circle members park for free! Remaining members who hold a 1-year Basic Zoo Pass do not receive free parking. All passes sold after Feb. 24, 2026, include parking. Please have your Zoo Pass card and photo ID ready for the gate attendants. To accommodate traffic flow at the Zoo, the Zoo Expeditions will not operate. Not a member? Click here to join.
