Zoo Boise is adding a fresh lineup of activities for September, giving families, seniors, and adults plenty of reasons to visit the city’s beloved wildlife park. The zoo’s calendar highlights four distinct events that blend education, entertainment, and community spirit.
Adaptive Evening at the Zoo
Presented by Accel Therapies, the Adaptive Evening offers a relaxed, wheelchair‑friendly experience for guests with mobility challenges. Attendees can enjoy guided tours, animal talks, and hands‑on activities designed to be accessible to everyone. The partnership underscores the zoo’s commitment to inclusion and to serving all members of the Boise community.
International Red Panda Day
Celebrating the recent addition of the Zoo Panda exhibit, International Red Panda Day will showcase these charismatic creatures with special feeding demonstrations, educational talks, and photo‑op opportunities. The event aims to raise awareness about red panda conservation and to inspire visitors of all ages to support wildlife preservation efforts.
Roar and Pour (21+ Only)
For adults looking for a night out, the zoo’s Roar and Pour evening provides a 21‑plus social setting with craft beer, wine, and light bites served in a scenic outdoor area. Guests can explore the zoo after hours, enjoy live music, and mingle while taking in the nocturnal ambiance of the animal habitats.
Zoo Know It All (21+ Trivia)
Also geared toward adults, Zoo Know It All is a trivia night that tests participants’ knowledge of zoo animals, conservation facts, and Boise history. Teams compete for prizes while enjoying a relaxed atmosphere that blends learning with friendly competition.
All four events are open to the public, though the Roar and Pour and Zoo Know It All evenings are restricted to guests 21 years of age or older. The Adaptive Evening and International Red Panda Day welcome visitors of any age, making them ideal family outings.
Details on ticket prices, registration, and additional programming can be found on the Zoo Boise website. Whether you’re a longtime Boise resident or a visitor exploring the city, September’s schedule offers a variety of ways to connect with nature, support conservation, and enjoy quality time with family and friends.
