What's Happening in Houston, TX…

One of Houston Zoo’s signature fundraisers will offer a sumptuous experience for those on its guest list, and its sponsorship program is now open.

The venue will once again be hosting its Zoo Ball, and its theme will be “ Sunset on the Savannah". It will honor Anne Duncan, who is its Director Emeritus, and there are several sponsorship levels available.

Guests at the black tie celebration will be treated to complimentary valet services, and a cocktail hour with ambassador animals is on the agenda. A silent auction, live auction and After Party will take place, and individual tickets are $1,500.

Local, national and international level companies that would like to show their community spirit by supporting the Zoo’s work can choose packages starting at the “Photo Booth at After Party” level at $5,000, and these go all the way up to the “Rhino Charge” level at $100,000. Each comes with its own perks, and they will all put the supporter’s branding in the eye of the attendees. Companies may donate branded corporate gifts in kind to an event, and these may be used as auction items or draw prizes.

Houston Zoo will welcome guests for its Zoo Ball 2026 starting 6:00 pm on November 7th. More information about the soirée, including its location and sponsorship details, can be found on the venue’s website.
