Pajama Party at the Saint Louis Zoo

Put on your pajamas for a family-friendly evening at the Saint Louis Zoo. From 5 to 8 p.m., guests can explore the Zoo and enjoy storybook readings at 10 habitats. The evening concludes at Schnuck Family Plaza with a special “Zootime” story at 7:40 p.m., with milk and cookies available for purchase while supplies last. Some Zoo areas, including River's Edge and Red Rocks, may close early.

Additional visitor information:

Free parking on Zoo lots begins at 4 p.m. No ticket purchase or reservation is required. Last admission is at 7:30 p.m. The Zoo itself opens at 9 a.m., but 5 p.m. is the event start time because that is when the Pajama Party programming begins; the earlier Zoo opening and parking times should not be entered as the event start. This follows the standard against confusing ancillary operating times with the event start time.
