The El Paso Zoo and Botanical Gardens is hosting an Earth Day celebration promising a full day of animals, activities and hands‑on learning for visitors of all ages. The event is scheduled for Saturday, April 25 and will run from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Attendees can expect opportunities to see animals up close, participate in interactive exhibits and enjoy family-friendly programming. Organizers say the celebration will feature keeper talks, educational stations and activities designed to engage kids and adults in conservation topics.

Beyond the animal encounters, the day will focus on environmental awareness and sustainable practices. Guests will have chances to learn about local plants, wildlife and ways to reduce their ecological footprint through simple, everyday actions.

Visitors should plan to arrive during event hours and check the zoo’s official website or social channels for the latest details on ticketing, scheduled activities and any health or safety guidelines.
