An unusual experience in the evening until 10 p.m. to do with your teenagers! Stroll through the park’s paths, headphones on your ears (and glass in hand). Accompanied by the playlists of 3 DJs, played only in the headphones to ensure the well-being of the animals, you will experience a special moment at sunset in a unique setting.
Always “in silence”, take part in a festive evening and the DJ Set which will see the 3 DJs compete around three different musical atmospheres until 1am.
For night owls
To continue the evening, until 11:30 p.m., enjoy a relaxation area specially set up on the forecourt of the zoo: deckchairs, cocktails, bar, sweet and savory catering, delicacies and good humor are on the menu for these evenings.
Happy Hour at the Nocturnes bar!
