Museums for All at the Central Florida Zoo & Botanical Gardens


As of December 3, 2025, the Central Florida Zoo & Botanical Gardens is proud to participate in Museums for All, a national initiative that provides affordable access to cultural and educational experiences for families receiving SNAP benefits.

What this means for you

Guests who present a valid SNAP EBT card at the gate receive $4 daytime General Admission per person. This year-round benefit makes it easier for families to explore wildlife, enjoy our botanical gardens and connect with nature together.

About Museums for All

Museums for All is a nationwide access program led by the Institute of Museum & Library Services and administered by the Association of Children’s Museums. It allows SNAP EBT cardholders to visit participating museums, zoos, gardens and science centers for free or reduced admission during normal operating hours.

Since its launch, the program has helped more than 13 million visitors experience educational and cultural institutions across the country.

Our Commitment to You

Participating in Museums for All supports our mission to welcome every member of our community. As CEO Richard E. Glover, Jr. shares:

“Museums for All aligns perfectly with our mission to inspire a love for animals and conservation, and our desire to be a place everyone in our community feels safe and valued.”

As an AZA-accredited Zoo, we’re also active in conservation, including Species Survival Plans® (SSPs) that help protect threatened and endangered species through collaborative breeding programs, research and education.
