Spend the night at Zoo Atlanta for a nocturnal adventure you won’t soon forget!
Remaining 2026 Dates:
May 16 
September 12 
November 4
Times: 6 p.m. until 9:30 a.m. the next morning
Member Cost: $100 | Non-Member Cost: $110
When the last guest leaves for the day, we invite you to stay! Come find out what really happens when the sun goes down. Which animals stay up late and how do others settle down for the night? And in the morning, how do animals greet the day? Join us as we explore these questions and more on an overnight adventure designed for families with children ages 6+.
Participating families will spend the majority of the evening outdoors walking around the Zoo with an Educator as their guide, stopping along the way to observe the nocturnal behaviors of the animals that call the Zoo home*. During the evening, participants will have the opportunity to use night vision technology and will visit Scaly Slimy Spectacular to discover the nocturnal world of frogs, lizards, snakes, and turtles, illuminated by red flashlights.
Participants will also enjoy a guided tour behind the scenes to discover how we care for animals every day. Learn about our new state-of-the-art veterinary complex, The Rollins Animal Health Center, and tour the Animal Nutrition Kitchen to find out what it takes to feed the Zoo!** 
After an evening of exploration, participants will sleep in indoor, climate-controlled rooms with sleeping bags brought from home. And then rise and shine for more fun! Enjoy a catered continental breakfast from Proof of the Pudding, an up-close Animal Encounter with some of Zoo Atlanta’s small Ambassador Animals, and morning visits to animal habitats to see how our Animal Care Specialists help the animals start their day. Participating families are invited to stay and enjoy the Zoo at their leisure at the completion of the program.
*Some of our diurnal animals sleep indoors at night. While we cannot promise specific animal observations during the program, we encourage you to stay and enjoy the Zoo at the completion of your program for no additional cost! 
**The behind-the-scenes portion of the tour is not fully ADA accessible. 
WHAT SHOULD YOU EXPECT DURING A NIGHTCRAWLER?
Rain or shine. This program happens rain or shine, and much of the program is outside. Please plan for the weather and dress accordingly.
The Zoo is made for walking! Most of this experience is spent walking around the Zoo, and there are multiple irregular surfaces and steep inclines. Plan to spend up to 5 hours on your feet touring the Zoo.
Come with a full belly. While we will take a break for a snack in the middle of the evening, please eat dinner before you arrive. And remember to bring your water bottle with you.
Embrace the dark. It’s called a NightCrawler for a reason. Explore the Zoo by the light of the moon and our Educators’ red-light flashlights. Guests may only use flashlights at bedtime.
Rustic camping meets the Zoo. All sleeping locations are in climate-controlled buildings with a restroom either in the building or nearby. Don’t forget to pack your sleeping bag!
Stay awhile. At the completion of your program the following morning, you are welcome to stay and enjoy the Zoo at your leisure.
Have FUN! This unique experience is unlike anything that you can do in Atlanta. We look forward to hosting you for an upcoming program!
Age Range: 6+
This program is designed for groups with children. A paid adult must accompany child(ren), and a paid child must accompany adult(s).

O by Brush

O by Brush welcomes IWA Sake for an intimate 18-seat omakase experience exploring the intersection of Japanese cuisine and IWA’s fine-wine philosophy of sake.

Chef Jason Liang will present a multi-course menu rooted in O by Brush’s progressive approach to Japanese cuisine, highlighting dry-aged seafood, pristine seasonal ingredients, binchotan, smoke, dashi, and Edomae-inspired techniques. Each course is designed around O’s focus on aging, temperature, texture and preservation.

Created in Toyama by Richard Geoffroy, former Chef de Cave of Dom Pérignon, IWA applies the art of Assemblage to sake. Throughout the evening, guests will experience multiple IWA releases served at different temperatures and in different vessels, revealing how each expression evolves alongside the menu.

Brenton Blanchard, who leads IWA’s U.S. business, will join Chef Jason throughout the evening to guide guests through this one-night collaboration.
