Lowry Park Zoo Offers Florida Residents a Sweet Deal

Lowry Park Zoo is inviting Florida residents to take a walk on the wild side for less. Through Sept. 26, the zoo is offering a big discount on gate admission for Floridians.

Instead of the normal $24.94 fee for adults, $22.95 for seniors and $19.95 for kids, the cost has been dropped to $10 for regular daytime admission. Adult ticket purchasers have to show their Florida IDs when buying.

The 1101 W. Sligh Ave. park is open from 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily. The park has more than 1,000 animals in its collection and covers almost 60 acres.

When Florida resident discounts end Sept. 26, the annual Zoo Boo celebration kicks off. The after-hours Halloween event begins with a “Shriek Peek” preview Sept. 26-27. The regular dates are Oct. 3-4, 10-12, 17-19, 23-26, 30 and Nov. 1.
