The Zoo Bar’s annual outdoor festival, Zoofest, will take place on July 11-12
Join the celebration on 14th Street between O and P streets, with the main entrance located on O Street.
Now in its 52nd year, Zoofest kicks off on Friday, July 11, with gates open from 4 p.m. to 1 a.m. and live music beginning at 5 p.m. The festivities continue on Saturday, July 12, from noon to 1 a.m., with music starting at 1 p.m.
The Zoo Bar will have chairs set up just behind the designated dance area, and guests are welcome to bring their own seating as well.
The Zoo Bar also encourages you to shop local; local businesses will be open during the event, allowing you to enjoy live music while shopping. If you want to shop without attending the festival, inform the front gate.
To enjoy the full Zoofest experience, purchase your tickets at the front gate or online here.
