Como After Hours

You are invited to join us and explore Como—without the crowds or the kids—at Como After Hours, a fun adults-only event to benefit Como.

Como After Hours | Tuesday, May 20, 2025 | 6:30 PM – 8:30 PM

Join us and spend a balmy spring evening exploring Como, and leave the crowds—and the kids—behind. Como After Hours is Como Friends’ adults-only event to benefit the gardens, animals, and free access you love at Como Park Zoo & Conservatory.

Grab your friends or bring a date, and explore Como like never before—with a drink in hand and nature all around. Wander through the coastal vibes of Como Harbor, the natural beauty of Polar Bear Odyssey, and the golden glow of the African savanna, all while discovering fun facts at interactive discovery hubs highlighting our animals, plants, and conservation efforts.

Meander through the zoo grounds to find the 10 Discovery Hubs with activities and games all about Como’s animals, plants, and conservation work. Complete a short activity at each Discovery Hub to earn chances to win the Como After Hours Grand Prize – the opportunity to name Como’s new baby Dall sheep!

The Grand Prize winner will be announced at the spoken program at 8:15 p.m.

This laid-back evening at Como features:
• A cash bar • Picnic-style concessions for purchase • Up-close animal and plant experiences • Conservation talks & hands-on activities • All your favorite parts of Como—without the daytime crowds

It’s a perfect night of grown-up fun, for a great cause. We can’t wait to see you there!
