Zoo Atlanta throws open its gates after dark for an adults-only evening built entirely around teachers.

On Saturday, October 3, 2026, from 6 to 8 p.m., Zoo Atlanta hosts an after-hours evening reserved for educators and one guest each. Teachers can wander the grounds at twilight, catch animal encounters and keeper presentations, and take a turn on the hand-carved Endangered Species Carousel. Zoo educators are on hand to talk through classroom resources and field-trip programming, and the Safari Snack Shack stays open for the evening. The event is adults-only. Registration details are on the listing page.
