Zoo Knoxville: Zoo After-Hours

Category: Culinary arts, food, Festivals, special events, Kids, family and Science, nature

Zoo Knoxville’s all-new After Hours are a special way to experience the Zoo on Thursday evenings. These evenings are free for annual pass members or with a general admission ticket.

Featuring special menu items created by the Zoo’s executive chef, a new food truck each week, and of course craft beer, wines and specialty cocktails, it’s a perfect way to wind down each week with friends and family.

Always kid-friendly and always wildly fun! The Splash Pad is open all day and evening!

July Menu:
• Steak Fried Rice
• Chicken Tinga Tacos
• Tajin Ranch Corn Dogs
• Popcorn & Pork Rinds

July Draft:
• Printshop Neon Renaissance Pink Guava

A refreshing sour beer that balances a light sour profile with brininess from the sea salt addition and aromas of coriander. Fermented on over 1 pound per gallon of pink guava to provide a burst of citrus that complements (rather than overwhelms) the gose profile.

Drinks:
• Tequila Frozen Margarita
• Frosé
• Schulz Brau, Blackhorse, Yazoo, Black Abbey, and Yee-Haw Canned Beer
• High Noon

Food Trucks:
July 1: Capt. Muchachos
July 8: Orale Mexican Food
July 15: EnjoyLatin
July 22: Crazy Cubans
July 29: Just Say Queso

After-Hours is open to all ages. You can re-enter the zoo with your same day general admission ticket. After-Hours is open rain or shine.

5:00 PM - 8:00 PM
