Flock Party is the Denver Zoo’s annual fundraiser, the one afternoon a year the grounds turn into a tasting event for adults rather than a stroller route, and the seventh edition lands August 22, 2026 with food stations, signature cocktails, live music and close-up animal experiences.
Ticket money funds the zoo’s conservation work, which is the reason the price runs higher than a normal admission day. The event is 21 and over, so leave the kids at home for this one.
