The Dallas Zoo’s Safari Nights concert series is returning and will continue the music experience into the fall for the first time ever.
Typically held in the spring, the series is coming back after a break for July and August to avoid the summer heat, bringing the beat back this autumn. Three more Saturday nights of music, dancing and outdoor activity will be available for the public to enjoy.
Concerts are included with Zoo admission and tickets for the fall dates are now on sale. Three tribute bands will bring the sound to The Grove stage throughout September including Escape (Journey Tribute) Sept. 13, Mighty Real Band (R&B Variety) Sept. 27 and Super Trouper (ABBA Tribute) Sept. 27.
At The Grove, guests can bring blankets or lawn chairs, rent an Adirondack chair for $5 or reserve a VIP cabana.
In addition to the music, guests can explore the Zoo after hours with extended time for up-close animal encounters and keeper chats, a twilight trek through Destination: Dinosaurs, which features life-size animatronic of the prehistoric creatures and the I Spy Butterflies garden walk-through which lasts until 7:30 p.m. There will also be a rotating lineup of food trucks and the Zoo’s classic spots for wood-fired pizza, sandwiches, drinks and sweet treats.
