Admission Prices
For our 2024 season, we are offering discounted admission rates for guests to explore the zoo grounds as a token of gratitude for your continued support during the renovation period. The heavy snowfall in January 2024 caused significant damage to facilities and infrastructure at Niabi Zoo. As a result of ongoing restoration efforts, certain animal habitats will be temporarily closed, and some animals may not be available for viewing. View map of what exhibits or areas will be closed.
