The Lincoln Park Zoo is a free zoo located about 5 miles north of the hotel. If you're looking for something to do on Saturday before the ceremony, this is a great place to stroll through and see a wide variety of animals, including giraffes, rhinos, birds of prey, reptiles, and big cats! There is not very much parking in the area, so would recommend taking a taxi/Uber to get to the zoo.
