Zoo To Do is a major source of funding for the Dallas Zoo. With the proceeds from the event, the Society is able to continue in its mission to support the Dallas Zoo as an outstanding center of education, entertainment, and wildlife conservation.

The party is held in the Giants of the Savanna exhibit at the Dallas Zoo. The evening begins with cocktails, a stroll through the Savanna, and the opening of the silent auction. It continues with more than 25 of Dallas’ finest chefs and restaurants providing food at different stations throughout the event. It is a true "grazing" event. Music, dancing and other live entertainment continues throughout the evening and is followed by a spectacular live auction and late night dancing under the stars.
