Ever wondered what happens after dark? Roaring Nights is the L.A. Zoo's adults-only summer music series that lets you explore the zoo after hours, rock out to local indie bands and dance to your favorite DJs, all while eating from L.A.'s best food trucks and sipping cold drinks available for purchase from the full bar. Pop-up zookeeper talks and animal encounters are all part of the revelry, and you can explore your own inner creative beast at the Animal Artistry Paint Party, where you'll paint your favorite animal on a small canvas to take home as a souvenir. Leave the kids at home but indulge your inner child when a different kind of wildlife takes over the landmark L.A. Zoo. With a different musical genre highlighted at each event, there's something for everyone.
