After celebrating our 100^th anniversary we are now "Zoomin’on" to another successful century and are gearing up our 34th annual black-tie gala. RITZ is the number one fundraising event for San Diego Zoo global and sells out every year with higher echelon attendees who prefer to bid on unique auction items and experiences while enjoying exquisite cuisine and entertainment all evening.

This year’s event directly raises funds toward “Walkabout Australia”. This will be an all new habitat located at the Safari Park where adults and kids alike will be able to hop, skip and jump through an authentically created Australian outback that will feature some of Aussie’s favorite animal species with an open range concept expanding over 4 acres. Exhibit grand opening 2018.
