Event Highlights

Guests wear provided headphones with three different channels of music – so everyone can pick their favorite genre and dance to the rhythm.

This evening will also include up-close animal experiences, and opportunities to learn about how important dance is to one local species, the Attwater’s prairie chicken. Other activities include arm marbling, temporary blacklight airbrush tattoos, and giant lawn games including Jenga, Connect Four, Ring Toss, and Cornhole.

A limited number of tickets will be available for purchase at the gate for $45.

Event Schedule: 
6:00 – 8:00 p.m. – Guests may explore the zoo, ride the carousel and view TXU Energy Presents Dinosaurs at the Houston Zoo!
8:00 – 10:00 p.m. – Party at the Reflection Pool which will transform into a club

Specialty Drink: Disco Tea
Behind the nutty sweetness of the Amaretto, the Scotch adds a smoky & briny flavor creating the perfect balance with two spirits that simply complement each other.

Tickets are non-transferable and non-refundable. Tickets will be sold at the event for an increased cost.
