March of the Penguins at the SF Zoo!

By Sponsored Content July 30, 2015
March of the Penguins returns! This year, on Saturday, August 1st, make plans to celebrate our two new chicks' graduation from Fish School and join the penguin colony. The march will start at 10 am. Zoo members will be allowed early entrance at 9 am, followed by the general public at 9:30 am. Please plan accordingly to arrive on time as the Penguin Island fills up quickly.

In addition to the march, there will be activities from 9 am to noon for the entire family. Guardian members will have a VIP viewing area directly across from the island's bridge where the penguins will waddle their way into the colony. We'll see you then!


Nestled against the Pacific Ocean, the San Francisco Zoo is an urban oasis. It is home to over 1,000 exotic, endangered and rescued animals representing more than 250 species and lovely, peaceful gardens full of native and foreign plants.
