2019 local food carts list coming soon!
Festivities begin at 5 p.m., and gates stay open until 9 p.m. The zoo will close to regular guests at 2 p.m. on both days in preparation for BrewLights.
More information about transportation options, including MAX schedules, will be available at Explore Washington Park. LYFT users can use the code BREWLIGHTS18 and get 30% off their ride cost (valid only the two nights of BrewLights).
BrewLights tickets include a souvenir cup and 10 beverage tastings throughout the zoo. Guests can sample beer, wine and cider from more than 40 Northwest vendors while strolling through colorfully-lit trees and dazzling 3-D light sculptures. For grown-ups interested in the lights without the beer sampling, a special Light Enthusiast ticket will be available as well.
Ticket options
Early entry tickets are $49.95, or $44.95 for zoo members (includes souvenir glass and drink samples). These special tickets include early access at 4 p.m., along with live entertainment and an animal encounter. A limited number of these tickets will be sold.
BrewLights Tickets are $39.95 and include zoo admission, a souvenir glass and 10 drink samples (3-oz beer/cider or 2-oz wine); $35.95 for zoo members. Additional drink tickets will be available on site for $2 each.
Light Enthusiast tickets are $21.95 and include zoo admission for grown-ups only. While beer & wine will be available for purchase at vending stations throughout the zoo, these tickets do not include the souvenir glass or sampling opportunities.
BrewLights is exclusive to guests 21 and over. Valid photo ID must be presented for entry. Proceeds benefit the zoo's conservation, education and animal welfare programs.
