ZOOtoDO - Toledo Zoo & Aquarium

Sept 19, 2025
Dive into the tides of twilight

ZOOtoDO is a tidal wave of incredible entertainment, featuring signature bites from area restaurants, and spirited sips around every turn. This adults-only, highly anticipated (never duplicated), impressive evening is all about partying with a purpose, as we raise important funds to support the mission and care for animals, and access for all.

Enjoy the ultimate food and beverage experience

Both General Admission and Premium Experience tickets include the ultimate beverage package! Quench your thirst with your choice of wine, beer, mixed cocktails and non-alcoholic options available at over 18 featured bars throughout the event. Paired with bite-size samples of culinary creations from the region's best restaurants, and live music around ever corner, your guests are sure to be entertained.

Savor the exclusive amenities as a Premium Experience guest

Premium Experience guests enjoy priority parking, an arrival gift, and access to the air-conditioned Lounge in Malawi Event Center, featuring incredible food stations by Hollywood Casino Toledo, full and specialty bars, live entertainment and animal encounters.

Immerse yourself and impress your guests as you make a splash as you stroll the scene as one of ZOOtoDO's first arrivals. This limited opportunity sells out quickly!

Engage and be inspired by some real party animals

Visit the giraffe feed deck for complimentary lettuce feeds, and enjoy train rides around the Africa! exhibit. Don't miss the sting ray touch tank inside the Aquarium later, 8-10:30 p.m.! Premium Experience guests will also have the opportunity to meet some of our education animals up-close inside Malawi Event Center.

Seas the moment

Whether you follow the current to The Lair, to enjoy fireside cigars, bourbon and curated curiosities, or find you need an aquatic escape, there is something for everyone. The newly featured area of The Abyss will offer a lounge inspired hideaway just off the beaten path, where guests can recharge and connect with friends under a moonlit glow.
