BE AN EARLY BIRD ON TICKETS TO SIPPIN’ SAFARI

Signature wine festival returns on September 21

WHAT: Early birds get a discount on tickets to Sippin' Safari, Zoo Atlanta's signature wine festival, returning on Saturday, September 21, 2024. Atlanta's wildest wine cellar comes uncorked with tastings of a wide selection of varietals and blends from leading winemaking regions; live music; exclusive evening wildlife viewing; and more.

Color the Night takes the main stage in the Ford Pavilion with an array of modern hits and timeless classics. Additional music highlights will include Americana folk from Robbie Litt and acoustic versions of favorite hits from SBC Duo. Guests will also enjoy Keeper Talks at animal habitats - animals will be in their habitats until roughly dusk - and complimentary rides on the Endangered Species Carousel.

A limited selection of beer and hard seltzer will also be available for tasting. Food will be available for purchase.

Now through August 18, early-bird tickets are $55 for Zoo Atlanta Members; $65 for non-Members. VIP tickets are also available at an early-bird rate at $110 and include early admission to the event at 5 p.m.; an event T-shirt; access to the air-conditioned VIP lounge; a snack box; and premium wine tastings.

After August 18, general admission tickets will be $65 for Zoo Atlanta Members; $75 for non-Members; and $125 for VIP. Tickets may not be available at the door, as Sippin' Safari has sold out in the past; advance online ticket purchase is strongly recommended.
