Want Free Zoo Tickets? Just Buy Some Coffee

BIRMINGHAM, AL — The Birmingham Zoo is one of the city's most popular attractions year after year. And coffee is one of the most popular beverages in the city. Now, Red Diamond Coffee & Tea have announced the return of its Zoo Promotion Coffee Can that provides customers with free child admissions and train ride tickets to the Birmingham Zoo with the purchase of the unique can.

The 34.5 oz. can, featuring a prominent giraffe and jaguar with a specially-marked label, includes two child admission tickets and two Red Diamond Express Train tickets (a value of $31) with the purchase of one adult admission ticket.

"As a family-friendly company, this partnership is one of our favorite initiatives year after year," said Emily Wood Bowron, assistant vice president of strategic marketing. "Red Diamond has been a sponsor of the Birmingham Zoo for over 13 years with entertainment including the Red Diamond Sea Lion Show and the Red Diamond Express Train. As one of the state’s most popular attractions, we’re thrilled to offer residents and visitors a day of excitement at the zoo while providing a boost of caffeine to help keep you going."

Red Diamond Classic Blend coffee is hand-picked, sun-dried, and small-batch roasted here in Alabama.

Customers can look for the special edition Zoo Promotion Coffee Can at select Birmingham retailers where 34.5 oz cans are sold, and bring the label to the Birmingham Zoo box office for redemption by December 31, 2019.
