The event, which is scheduled to take place Friday, September 28th, has no more tickets available. Advance ticket sales were very strong, and in order to ensure an enjoyable event for those already with tickets, no more tickets will be available for purchase.
"We're amazed with how well tickets have sold for this event, especially since it's only our second year hosting it," said Zoo Director Marc Heinzman. "While we're sorry that we will have to limit how many people can come to this incredible event, we want to make sure that we're able to provide the best experience possible to everyone who already has purchased tickets. We only have so much
beer, wine, and food for everyone to enjoy."
According to Heinzman, over 750 tickets have been sold. In 2011, the first year for the event, about 550 people attended Pints for Pachyderms. Niabi Zoo hopes to plan an even larger event next year so that more people can come and enjoy this one of a kind event.
