Pricing
Heads up! Like so many others, staffing shortages have required us to rethink our operational strategy in an effort to continue providing the level of service our guests and animals deserve.
Effective 2022 season, tickets pre-ordered online by 9 a.m. the day of your visit will be discounted while tickets purchased in-person at the gate the day of your visit will cost a few dollars more. Our new process will allow us to staff more effectively for expected attendance to ensure the best experience for you and your family.
