ZSL’s fundraising gala, Safari in the City supported by Sky Nature, will take place on 20 September 2023. 

Join us in the heart of London for a gala like no other, raising essential funds to power ZSL’s work to bring wildlife back from the very brink of extinction and to restore the natural world. 

Guests will enjoy an immersive urban safari adventure, exploring London Zoo at twilight with cocktails in hand, to meet our conservationists and endangered animals.  

Dinner is served in a unique safari tent where guests enjoy a sumptuous meal, drinks and entertainment hosted by ZSL supporter, the brilliant David Walliams, where you’ll hear exciting stories about ZSL’s global work to protect animals on the brink of extinction and those that could be next. 

You will then have the chance to bid on once-in-a-lifetime experiences including international visits to our field conservation programmes, and other unique prizes as part of our auction.  We are delighted that our live auction will be delivered by the Chairman of Sotheby’s, the exceptional Lord Harry Dalmeny.

We really hope you will attend ZSL’s Safari in the City gala and that together, we can secure a future for wildlife and our shared planet.
