Events with an everlasting impact.
With versatile, extraordinary venues and carefully curated menus, private events at Riverbanks Zoo & Garden are an unmatched experience for those planning and attending. Our venues are nestled throughout the abundant flora and fauna found within the grounds, providing the ultimate ‘wow’ factor.
Our team consists of innovative event specialists, trained culinary chefs, and event execution experts. We are committed to making planet-friendly choices and have implemented sustainable, green practices as a part of our event standards and mission of conservation for the future of our environment.
- SUSTAINABLE SEAFOOD
- Unfortunately, not all seafood is produced responsibly. We follow the recommendations of the Monterey Bay Aquarium’s Seafood Watch program, in combination with eco-certifications, to ensure that we are making choices to promote the importance of healthy oceans and doing our part in protecting endangered animals.
- PALM OIL
- As members of the Roundtable for Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO), we make every effort to mitigate the environmental and social impacts associated with palm oil production. We are constantly reviewing our purchases of palm oil inclusion and sourcing, and advocating the importance of this in our industry.
- DIVERSITY-OWNED VENDORS
- We celebrate the things that make each one of us different, and work to support our local community and their businesses. Diversity-ownership of vendors in our industry is important to us, and we strive to engage and partner with them in our operations.
By hosting your event at Riverbanks, you are helping us take one step closer to a more sustainable future. Additionally, a portion of your proceeds support the care and conservation of the animals and plants at Riverbanks and beyond.
