Denver Zoo Conservation Alliance is home to more than 2,500 animals representing 450 species.

DENVER — Denver Zoo Conservation Alliance (DZCA) invites the community to shake a tailfeather for a good cause.

The zoo's annual Flock Party benefit event will be held Saturday, Sept. 7.

The event features live music, animal experiences, fashion illustrations, craft cocktails and artisan eats in the company of more than 2,500 wild animals.

"Flock Party is a wonderful way to celebrate what has been a historic year for our organization and join our community of guests, members and donors who continue to support our animal care and wildlife conservation efforts," said Bert Vescolani, President and CEO of DZCA. "This event has been a huge hit over the past four years and we’re looking forward to welcoming another colorful, enthusiastic crowd to our campus on September 7."

Guests will spend a wild night helping wildlife with music by DJ Erin Stereo, Incendio, Something Vinyl Club, Pan Association and 6 Million Dollar Band.

DZCA said live animal experiences include the zoo’s flamingo walk and demonstrations with African wild dogs, African lions, Asian elephants, Amur tigers and more.

Flock Party will be catered by Bonanno Concepts, with a menu from their lineup of award-winning Denver restaurants. Dishes include a Tuscan sandwich from Salt & Grinder, beef gyro sliders from Vesper Lounge, French dip from French 75, rigatoni Bolognese from Luca and wild mushroom fusilli from Osteria Marco.

General admission tickets are available for $150 per person at DenverZoo.org. All food, drink and entertainment are included with each ticket purchase.
