September 29, 2024 from 9-11:30am
at Como Park Zoo & Conservatory
Dive into a global adventure in the heart of Como Park Zoo & Conservatory and discover more to learn—and love—about the animals and plants in our care. Your Como Quest mission, if you choose to accept it, will send you and your team on a treasure hunt through the rainforest habitat of Tropical Encounters, the coastal landscapes of Como Harbor, the tundra of Polar Bear Odyssey and the lush gardens of the Marjorie McNeely Conservatory on an unforgettable adventure exploring Minnesota’s most visited conservation destination.
Como Friends’ Como Quest is a wild exploration designed for multigenerational fun, as kids and adults work together to unlock conservation clues and uncover exciting new secrets about animals, plants, and the planet we share. With an interactive scavenger hunt app and an adventurous spirit, your team of treasure hunters will dig deep into Como’s amazing animal and plant collections, while supporting the best care possible for the animals and plants and free admission that is so important to our community.
The teams that are first, second, and third to complete all missions will win a gift card to Garden Safari Gifts for $100, $75, and $50 respectively. Teams that finish over half the missions will be entered in a drawing to win a 3-in-1 tiger, red panda, and koi fish Lego set.
Regardless of age or ability Como Quest is perfect for connecting your family to the very best of Como Park Zoo & Conservatory. Hear what a few players from the inaugural event have to say:
“We had a LOT OF FUN and the kids loved completing the Conservation Missions around Como Zoo. We can’t wait to sign up for the next Como Quest!”
“The concept is fantastic and I loved that it was on an app. There was no fussing with paper or pens, and I have great photos of the kids on my phone to keep the memories from Como Quest.”
Como Quest is a team activity! Tickets are $20 per person and sold individually so you can build a team of any size. Children ages three and under participate for free. Your team includes all adults and children who are participating in the event. For the best experience, we recommend teams of 4-6 players per team.
