PICNICS
We don’t monkey around when it comes to offering your group a quality experience at an affordable price. Sure to please most budgets, the Zoo offers unique locations for casual business meetings, cozy family reunions or the yearly company picnic.
With facilities that can accommodate groups of any size, planning your picnic at the Zoo is sure to bring you rave reviews.
Things to remember:
A 20% deposit is required to reserve your space. The remainder of your balance, plus any additional
charges incurred, will be due prior to your event.
All private events must be scheduled three weeks prior to your preferred date. All rentals based on
availability. Any special packages or additions must be made prior to signing your contract.
The Memphis Zoo accepts cash, checks, VISA, MasterCard, American Express and Discover.
Regular Zoo admission is not included with after-hours rental fees.
All decorations must be approved by the Private Events Department no later than three weeks prior
to your event.
Balloons, straws, lids for cups, glitter, confetti and glass bottles are strictly prohibited.
No alcoholic beverages will be allowed during regular Zoo hours.
We apologize but the Zoo is unable to provide transportation for decorations or other items for your
event. You may unload your vehicle through a special "service entrance" if you request this
service at least 2 weeks in advance. Please plan accordingly.
