The full list of artists and bands who are expected to perform at these special evening gigs will not be revealed to the public until December 1st (however Mondo Rocks' Ross Wilson's upcoming Zoo Twilight gig has been listed on his official website).

In previous years Melbourne Zoo has hosted many esteemed artists, bands and tribute shows including Joe Camilleri & the Black Sorrows, Diesel, James Reyne, Mark Seymour, The Neil Diamond Super Hits Show, The Australian Kylie Show, The Australian Queen Show and Babba. These special sundown gigs begin at 7:00pm and cease at approximately 9:30pm.

The concert series are very popular events so buy your tickets in early December to avoid disappointment from the Melbourne Zoo in person or online.

Also if the Melbourne Zoo in the evening appeals to you, why not check out the popular 'Roar 'n' Snore' events, in which brave guests spend the night in a tent with their favourite animals nearby. These special nights run from September to May, so with summer approaching they will surely be popular.

Priced at $195 for adults and $145 for children, guests will enjoy a hearty dinner in the 'Elephant House,' followed by a special tour of the Zoo at night – where you can immerse yourself in the unforgettable sights and sounds of the animals as they sleep under the stars, not forgetting the nocturnal animals who stay wide awake. Guests will then be served supper by their hosts and then make their way to the safari tents fitted with comfy mattresses (guests can also bring along sleeping bags and pillows).

However this one of a kind experience does not end in the darkness of night. Imagine the sounds of the early morning as the sun rises and the animals begin to wake. Enjoy breakfast with your favourite animal as you are treated to some of the behind-the-scenes happenings at Melbourne Zoo. This popular event is recommended for children 5 and over and tents and mattresses are provided as well as dinner, supper and breakfast. Admission to the Zoo, the following day of the 'Roar n Snore' event is also included in the price. Check the Melbourne Zoo website for further details regarding this event, which will run regardless of weather.
