What
Two Washington Mutual ZooTunes concerts have sold out since ticket sales began May 31: Taj Mahal and the Hula Band with special guest Keola Beamer; and Shawn Colvin with special guest.

Tickets for the following performances are going fast and are still available at PCC Natural Markets only (with a $2 service fee added): Suzanne Vega with special guest David Wilcox, $18; Aimee Mann with special guest Pete Droge, $19; Bela Fleck and the Flecktones, $19. These tickets are no longer available for purchase at zoo gates.

A major fundraiser for the zoo, Washington Mutual ZooTunes is held outdoors in the zoo’s North Meadow where concert-goers sprawl out with blankets and low-backed patio chairs. With tickets $20 and under, and kids 12 and under free, the festival seating performances offer one of the best concert bargains in the Northwest. Thanks in part to Washington Mutual’s sponsorship, ZooTunes raised over $600,000 last year to support animal care, zoo maintenance and upkeep, education programs for children and adults, and conservation programs that are helping to preserve wildlife species in our state and all over the world.

In addition to Washington Mutual, this year’s ZooTunes is sponsored by: PCC Natural Markets; Seattle Weekly; Shuttle Express; and The Mountain 103.7 FM.
