The Erie Zoo saw some evening crowds for "The Mane Event: Centennial Edition".

This was a chance for adults to party with the animals to support the Erie Zoo.

The Mane Event was an unforgettable celebration, as planners pulled out all the stops for the zoo's 100th anniversary! 

Since it began as Galapazooza, this has always been a sold out event, and the most spectacular night at the zoo.

There were thrilling animal encounters, and a silent auction showcased 100 baskets to represent 100 incredible years of conservation, community, and connection with wildlife.

Cali's West catered with delicious food, with drinks at six bars throughout the zoo.

Erie's own First to Eleven provided live music. All the money raised will support the Erie Zoo into the next 100 years.
