Join BECU Zootunes this summer- one of the most popular outdoor concert series in Seattle, hosted at Woodland Park Zoo. Proceeds from ticket sales help to support Woodland Park Zoo’s animal care, education and conservation mission.  The concerts are family friendly and guests are encouraged to bring a blanket and picnic while they enjoy great live music along the park grass.  There is also a host of tasty food and beer options available at each concert, including our favorite brews from Pyramid Breweries.

BECU Zootunes is celebrating their 30th anniversary with a tremendous lineup of concerts, some of which have already sold out.  Here is the schedule of currently available shows:

Trombone Shorty & Orleans Avenue with JJ Grey & Mofro (8/7)

  • Loreena McKennitt (8/15)
