Croctail Pop-Up Bar

Overview

Halloween thrills await at Wild Life Sydney Zoo this year, with real life monsters on hand to spook you and your mates. The Darling Harbour zoo is hosting a pop-up bar inside its Crocodile Den, where the guest of honour is a four-metre-long, 365-kilogram saltwater croc named Rocky.

The night will start off with a reptile talk from the team. They'll feed Rocky before your eyes, plus offer the chance to 'cuddle' a snake or lizard.

On the bar side of things, the two-hour sittings include a house wine or beer on arrival. Additional themed tapas and cocktails by Trolley'd will be available for purchase throughout the night —and the menu will focus on native ingredients like roasted wattle, urban beehive honey and Illawarra plum vodka.

Tickets cost $15 and five bucks from each ticket sold will be donated to the zoo's conservation fund, which supports animal research and welfare.

The pop-up bar will run over two weekends and six nights, from Thursday, October 29–Saturday, October 31 and Thursday, November 5–Saturday, November 7 — with two sittings per night at 5pm and 7pm. With only 13 seats available in the Crocodile Den each night, these tickets are going to be snapped up quick, so move fast if you want to head along.
