The Little Rock Zoo is offering three fun options for guests wanting to experience the Great American Solar Total Eclipse on April 8, 2024.

Little Rock, Arkansas is one of the cities that will be on the path of Totality and the Little Rock Zoo is celebrating with one of three options for its guests to experience this once-in-a-lifetime event.

The biggest package is the  Pull Up on the Path Tailgate Party where guests have access to the zoo beginning at 7 a.m. in a private gated lot. Guests will have secured parking and guests can bring tents, folding chairs, and blankets, to set up and watch the eclipse with over 400 animals to see how they respond to this rare phenomenon. It's believed that when the total solar eclipse occurs birds will quit chirping and the sound of crickets will be heard.
