Spend your Friday evening at the Utica Zoo with live music by Cait Devin! The Utica Zoo is the perfect place for families, the perfect place for a date, and the perfect location to leave the hustle and bustle of your everyday life behind. And now there is even more time to enjoy the zoo! Starting July 7, the zoo will be open until 7 PM every FRIDAY through August 25. Regular admission prices apply. And better yet, during these extended hours we will have entertainment AND our concession stand – Polly’s by Kookie’s Q – will be open to offer food, beer, wine, ice cream, and non-alcoholic beverages. So stop by the zoo, enjoy a light dinner, crack open an ice-cold adult beverage, drift away on the waves of live music, and see our more than 200 exotic and domestic animals in a different, more orange light.
