Dates Announced For Melbourne Zoo Twilights & Twilight At Taronga 2017 Concert Series

Australia’s favourite zoo-based concert series is returning next year to take our breath away as twilight falls.

The official dates for Sydney’s Twilight At Taronga and Melbourne Zoo Twilights have just been unveiled, and they’re set to run each weekend from Friday, 27th January to Saturday, 11th March in 2017.

What’s more, the full summer program is set to be unveiled next Wednesday, 19th October.

Last year saw performances from some of the country’s finest including Courtney Barnett, Josh Pyke, Birds Of Tokyo, John Butler Trio, Missy Higgins and more, with organisers once again promising “a captivatingly diverse lineup set amongst the unique environments of Taronga Zoo and Melbourne Zoo”.

We’re sure it’ll continue both zoos’ hard work to restore dignity to the name “Twilight” (plus, you know, help their incredible work safeguarding the future of the wild).

All proceeds from the Melbourne Zoo Twilights and Twilight at Taronga summer concert series will go towards funding each zoos’ many vital ongoing conservation initiatives.

And awesomely, for the first time next year, concert admission to Taronga will also score guests free same-day zoo entry, while Melbourne punters can enjoy full zoo access from 5:30pm.

Catch the dates, below.
