Yesterday, the Bronx Zoo held its "Brew at the Zoo" event, marking its return to the venue. Intended for adult attendees, the event featured educational animal exhibits, a selection of craft beers, live music, and various scheduled activities throughout the evening, as reported by PIX11.

From 6 p.m. to 11 p.m., the Bronx Zoo hosted an adults-only event featuring more than 100 varieties of beer, wine, seltzer, and non-alcoholic beverages, according to the Bronx Times. In addition to the drink offerings, 20 food trucks and vendors provided a range of food options. Attendees also had access to select animal exhibits until 7:30 p.m., including the Dinosaur Safari, which features over 60 life-sized prehistoric replicas.

The event included multiple themed entertainment areas. In the Retro Zone, 1980s and 1990s music played alongside live breakdancing. "Superstition Lane" featured Friday the 13th-themed activities, and guests had the option to participate in Inflatable Axe Throwing. The Backyard Party Zone provided a more relaxed setting with swings and designated photo areas, as per report by the Bronx Times.

Drawing a large crowd, the Cabrera couple, married for twenty years and parents of three, took advantage of the event for some quality time. "They were there for 'Brew at the Zoo,' screamed one of the attendees," PIX11 reported. Due to the festival’s popularity last year, tickets for this year’s event were in high demand, leading organizers to advise securing them early.
