Sunset Zoo Do
The perfect way to delight colleagues and guests in a truly unique setting
Celebrate an evening at Melbourne Zoo with exclusive hire for a memorable wild life experience in the heart of the city.
Your guests can explore Melbourne Zoo at their leisure: seeing what our animals get up to "after hours", hearing from our keepers and meandering through our treasured gardens. As the sun begins to set, come together on the spacious lawns for an evening of food, drink and entertainment, accompanied by the sounds of wildlife and music.
