Sunset Fridays, a new after-hours event for the whole family, takes place at San Francisco Zoo & Gardens every Friday through August 25 from 5 to 7 pm at the Playfield Lawn. Guests will enjoy live music by SFJazz and other special performances, outdoor bar, kid-friendly activities, ambassador animals and more

The event name harkens to SF Zoo’s unique proximity to the Pacific Ocean and location in the historic Sunset District, with timing for the summer event close to the sunset hour and in honor of the many animal species that are crepuscular – or active during sundown!

The first-time event will take place in the open Playfield area featuring:

  • Elinor Friend Playground
  • Historic Dentzel Carousel
  • Playfield Café
  • Performances on the Playfield Lawn

While the entire zoo will not be open, guests can visit the following exhibits on their scheduled nights, to learn more about these amazing species:

  • July 14  California Conservation Corridor
  • July 21 Giraffe Lodge
  • July 28 Chilean Flamingo Habitat
  • August 4 Giraffe Lodge
  • August 11 Giraffe Lodge
  • August 18 Chilean Flamingo Habitat
