100th Birthday Celebration at Beardsley Zoo
*The event has already taken place on this date: Sat, 06/25/2022
We’re having a party to celebrate our 100th Birthday! It took 100 years, but we're ready for our Centennial Celebration on June 25th! Join us from 11-3 as we reflect on the Zoo's history and just how far animal care and welfare has come since 1922. We'll welcome special guests, a birthday cake bake-off with six local bakeries, listen to wonderful live music, and enjoy STAR 99 who will be here for the day!
We have the Classic Rock band Lost Rebel at the party from noon to 1:30. They'll be playing '70s favorites from bands like Fleetwood Mac, The Eagles, Tom Petty and Credence Clearwater Revival. You won't want to miss it!

Join us for:

• A Sneak Peek at this summer’s Education Animal Shows
• Proclamations from the city of Bridgeport and the state
• Visits from the governor, mayor, senators, and representatives
• “Win a Free Birthday Party” Contest
• Entertainment on the Peacock Pavilion stage: Lost Rebel, a four-piece classic rock band
• Time capsule/Tree Planting
We're assembling a time capsule on June 25, too--to be opened in fifty years, on June 25, 2072. We'd love to have kids bring us their drawings with ideas for what life will be like in 50 years--we'll put a few in the capsule. Make sure their name and town is on their drawing so we can find them in 2072! Send them to us at info@beardsleyzoo.org.
