Join us in celebrating the 45th annual Zoofari gala, hosted by Friends of the Louisville Zoo, on Friday, June 12, 2026. This year, we are honoring three members of the Louisville Zoo’s majestic family: Masai giraffes Baridi, Kianga, Josie and Nyasi. The night begins with signature cocktails, hors d’oeuvres, dinner, silent auction, a bourbon pull, and live music provided by the Louisville Crashers.
Don’t miss out on special opportunities only available to sponsors, including animal encounters, VIP options, and a unique live auction. There is no other party in town like this!
All proceeds will support the enhancement and expansion of the Louisville Zoo.
Please note that this event is for guests who are 21+ only.
