Something strange is happening at the Bronx Zoo! Grab your sleeping bag and detective gear as you and your family help to solve an exciting mystery during the Bronx Zoo's 25th Annual Family Overnight Safari. Beginning at 4:30 pm on a Saturday afternoon, you'll arrive to set up your cozy campsite and start exploring the zoo, where you'll be treated to up-close animal encounters and access to select exhibits after hours. After a yummy dinner (pack your own picnic or purchase from the zoo cafe), enjoy a complimentary ice cream dessert and, just before you fall asleep to the sounds of the animals in their enclosures, a late-night snack. Wake up the next morning to a continental breakfast and enjoy early access to the Nature Trek and Children's Zoo, as well as a morning scavenger hunt. You'll depart the zoo at 10:00 am on Sunday, souvenir t-shirt in hand, or spend the day visiting any exhibits you missed the night before, as general zoo admission is still yours 'til closing time. Gorillas and tigers and flamingos, oh my!

One more treat: In 2018, Lacoste launched a limited edition line of "Save Our Species" polo shirts in partnership with the International Union for Conservation of Nature, with proceeds benefiting the fight to protect wildlife worldwide. In place of Lacoste's iconic alligator, a motif of an endangered species was sewn, and the line quickly sold out. But a men's small polo, sporting the endangered Saolo, is yours with this special package. Wear it for your zoo experience or keep as a collector's item!

This event is for children ages 5 and older. Families must provide their own tent and camping gear.
Tickets are for Saturday, June 8th; for a $50 change fee, and assuming other dates are open, winner can reschedule.
