Join us July 4–6 as we celebrate half a century of your zoo.
In 1975, our community came together to create something special—a place where families could connect with wildlife, nature, and each other. Now, 50 years later, we invite you to honor that legacy and be part of the next chapter.
From July 4–6, enjoy throwback pricing and a walk through history:
General Admission: $19.75 – a nod to our founding year
Over 20% off our typical $25.95 peak admission pricing
Even more discounts for seniors and children
Whether you’re returning for the first time in years or bringing your own kids for their first visit, this is your moment to relive the magic.
We’re debuting a brand-new, limited-time historical gallery inside the Wayne Densch building.
See the milestones, memories, and behind-the-scenes moments that helped shape our zoo into what it is today.
Did you visit the zoo in the ‘70s, ‘80s, or ‘90s? Have a favorite photo with the giraffes, or home video of your child’s first zoo day? We want to feature you in our historical gallery!
This celebration is as much yours as it is ours. For 50 years, you’ve helped shape this zoo—by visiting, volunteering, supporting, and sharing it with the next generation.
So come walk down memory lane, rediscover old favorites, and make some new memories, too.
We can’t wait to celebrate your zoo with you.
