Free and Discounted Admissions for AZA Members

AZA Individual Members (Professional, Student and Commercial) may access free or discounted admissions to AZA-accredited zoos and aquariums. This member benefit is a way to network with peers in the zoo and aquarium community and learn best practices.

Please note that this benefit is NOT available to Advocate Members or members of local zoos and aquariums. If you are seeking information on the AZA Reciprocal Admissions Program please click here

Not all institutions participate, so be sure to check the list before you visit. It's always a good idea to call BEFORE you visit. You must present a valid, current AZA membership card for admission.

PLEASE NOTE – Due to the COVID-19 restrictions, it is at the discretion of the participating zoos and aquariums as to whether they will be able to honor entrance benefits during this time. Call ahead to know before you go.
