Turn up the volume and flock out all day with live music performances leading up to Featherfest, the high-energy finale featuring the 6 Million Dollar Band. Get into the groove with face painting, glitter tattoos and hair tinsel while DJs and live bands keep the party going all day long.
And the best part? An earlier start means you can let your inner party animal out for the day and still be home in time to put the kids to bed.
Get your tickets while they last! Ticket link in bio.
Keep cool on a hot day at DZCA! Visit Stingray Cove and dip your hands and arms in our 15,000 gallon pool to feed rays and sharks! Learn about the importance of sharks and rays in the ocean and walk away from your hands-on experience with a deeper appreciation of these unique animals!

🐸 Earlier in June, our Rocky Mountain Field Conservation Team surveyed a known boreal toad breeding site alongside our partners at @coparkswildlife and encountered 72 toads, a new record for the team!
That number is worth sitting with: it`s nearly 10% of Colorado`s estimated remaining boreal toad population, found in a single survey. This is why partnerships matter so much in conservation work, as we continue strengthening our relationship with CPW while directly supporting a species on the brink.
