Philadelphia Zoo

With more than 1,900 rare and endangered animals from around the world situated on 42 acres of Victorian gardens, Philadelphia Zoo offers the perfect setting for your event! The possibilities are endless; sip cocktails immersed in a world of brilliantly colored birds, dine in the midst of majestic great apes, or celebrate in style with our rare and exotic big cats. America’s historic first zoo offers a wide range of unforgettable locations to serve as the scene for your special occasion. Choose from a LEED-certified building with world-class educational demonstrations, floor-to-ceiling glass exhibits that let your guests get within inches of their favorite animals, or outdoor plazas with breathtaking views of nature and magnificent fountains.
