Two women smile and hold drinks outside the 1899 Grove Eatery. Both wear pretzel necklaces. People and trees are visible in the background on a sunny day.

It’s that time of year again—OktoBEARfest is back!

Woodland Park Zoo transforms into your own personal beer garden. Get ready to taste your way through 50 Northwest breweries, cideries, and meaderies.

With the entire zoo open and kid-free, you’ll get the chance to adventure through exhibits with a drink in hand—sampling your favorite local pours and discovering bold new brews to stock your fridge with.

Whether you’re on the hunt for your next favorite pour or simply looking for a wildly unique day out with friends, OktoBEARfest is the perfect way to celebrate fall.

Each ticket purchase supports conservation efforts locally and around the world.
