Our Story
Zoobilation presented by Indianapolis Power & Light Company is the regions largest black-tie fundraiser.
Each year, more than 5,000 guests come to the Indianapolis Zoo on the second Friday in June to party with a purpose, as this luxurious evening of indulgence also helps to fund the care of the Zoo’s 1,200 animals and 46,000 plants as well as its local education and global conservation initiatives.
During Zoobilation, more than 70 of Central Indiana’s most popular eateries will offer samples of their finest culinary creations as they vie for the coveted blue ribbon and people’s choice awards. Additionally, guests can sip on top-shelf cocktails, wines and other drinks while enjoying live entertainment from some of the area’s hottest bands.
The Premium Experience also offers a limited number of party goers early access to the event as well as other exclusive benefits, including opportunities to interact with some of the animals Zoobilation supports.
