Are you looking for a different kind of date? One that will drive your companion wild with animal passion? Tonight Miami Metrozoo might have just what you need to kick-start a successfully romantic evening. Instead of shutting down at the usual 5:30 p.m., the zoo will stay open until 8:00 as part of Summer Nights. The new program is offered only three Saturdays during the season, so tonight’s your night to make an impression.

If you and your hot date are parents, bring the kids along. Diego Márquez from the animated series Go, Diego, Go! will be on hand to make the children wish the zoo were open until midnight. The park opens at 9:30 a.m., and the ticket booth closes at 6:30 p.m. Admission runs from $6.75 for kids to $11.50 for adults. Children under two get in free.
