Elmwood Park Zoo’s (temporary) transformation from daily family destination to wild party location is under way as it prepares for its biggest event of the summer.

Guests of this year’s Beast of a Feast, Elmwood Park Zoo’s annual summertime fundraiser, will enjoy sample selections from nearly 50 local restaurants, making it the largest food celebration in the event’s nearly-10-year history.

Presented by Crave Montco, the official dining guide of Montgomery County, Beast of a Feast begins at 6 PM on Thursday, June 29 and directly supports Elmwood Park Zoo’s conservation and education initiatives.

In addition to all of the delicious food, guests will enjoy complimentary beer and wine, live music, giraffe feedings, prize raffles, and a silent auction, all within the beautiful setting of the zoo at twilight.

“We’re excited to bring so many great Montgomery County-based restaurants together for our guests to enjoy in one night,” said Jennifer Conti, Elmwood Park Zoo’s Development Director. “Special events like Beast of a Feast help the zoo grow. We’re so honored to have the support of all the restaurants, event sponsors, and guests.”
