Sponsorship & Licensing

Location Shoots
Do we allow production crews at our properties? Of course we do! As a nonprofit organization, we rely on images and video of our animal and plant collections to support our worldwide conservation efforts. Each production request is considered on a case-by-case basis, and a fee to shoot stills or video/film will apply. Please note the terms of use are governed by a signed Location Agreement.

With the help of our official airline partner, Alaska Airlines, we created an engaging on-grounds experience where guests can take a ride on our aerial tram and capture their best “Skyfari Selfie” for a chance to win a pair of airline tickets.
