Great news for Philly families! The Philadelphia Zoo is now part of the ACCESS Program, making it even easier for families to visit without breaking the bank. Starting February 5, ACCESS cardholders can purchase $2 tickets for themselves and up to three guests during general admission hours.
The ACCESS Program helps families who receive public benefits explore Philly’s top museums, attractions, and cultural sites at a low cost. Now, with the Philadelphia Zoo on board, more families can enjoy a fun and educational day with the animals.
This partnership helps make the zoo accessible to more families, ensuring kids can connect with wildlife and learn about conservation. If you’ve been waiting for an affordable way to visit the Philadelphia Zoo, now is your chance!
