For six Thursdays this summer, the Sacramento Zoo is featuring "Twilight Thursdays" from 5:30 - 8:00 pm This well attended event features live music - a main stage with a rotating lineup of bands and a second stage with live jazz next to the giraffe exhibit. If you're there for the live music, we suggest bringing a blanket or chairs to enjoy the show. Several cafes and snack bars were open, wine and beer vendors were serving, and each Twilight Thursday features dinner specials. You can also explore the whole zoo, although the animals were a little (understandably) tired. This was a great event - perfect for a family night out or date night.
