Tundra's Summer Cooldown -Ice Cream Festival
Saturday, July 18 02:00 PM
Lake Superior Zoo
Tundra’s Summer Cooldown is your after-hours excuse to eat a lot of really good ice cream.
Join us at the Lake Superior Zoo for a one-of-a-kind tasting event featuring 30+ flavors from seven incredible creameries across the Upper Midwest—including the Twin Cities, Grand Rapids, St. Cloud, and Wisconsin. It’s a rare chance to sample this much small-batch goodness without leaving Duluth.
Your ticket gets you a tasting cup and unlimited one-ounce scoops, so you can wander, sample, and discover your new favorite flavor at your own pace. Plus, with the Zoo open after hours, you’ll enjoy a more relaxed vibe—and maybe catch some animals exploring special enrichments along the way.
Want more of something you love? Many vendors will have pints, treats, and extras available for purchase, along with additional food and drinks throughout the night.
Before you go, don’t forget to vote for your favorite creamery—because bragging rights (and a featured spot at the Zoo next year) are on the line.
Great ice cream, cool animals, and a perfect Duluth summer night—what’s not to love?
