Zoo Snoozes
Overnight Experiences for Children
![]()
Looking for a fun educational experience for your group, ages 7-12? A Zoo snooze may be just the thing for you. The NC Zoo offers exciting overnight programs to engage your brain, entertain your senses, and enhance your environmental awareness. Each overnight adventure includes special presentations, activities, a light snack, an outdoor experience and a craft to take home.
The fun will resume the next morning, after a light breakfast, until 9 a.m. when you continue the adventure on your own in the N.C. Zoo’s 500-acre park.
Zoo snoozes are offered on Friday and Saturday evenings, January-November, subject to availability. A limited number of Wednesday and Thursday evening program dates are available each year as well.
