Want to Learn More About the Reciprocal Zoo/Aquarium Program?

Membership to Potter Park Zoo brings many benefits. One of the most exciting is the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA) Reciprocal Zoo/Aquarium Program! Participating AZA accredited zoos and aquariums offer significant discounts to members of Potter Park Zoo – anywhere from 50 to 100% off on admission. A few things to note:

Be sure to call ahead when planning a visit to confirm their reciprocity discount.

Occasionally the list of participating institutions changes. Discounted admission is generally only honored for the adults named on the membership card and any children living in the household (for those with a family membership). Some institutions limit reciprocity to two adults and two children.

In order to receive your discount, zoo members will be asked to present their membership card and a second form of identification when visiting another zoo.

Visiting from an AZA Reciprocal Zoo/Aquarium?

AZA Reciprocal Admission to Potter Park Zoo includes discounted admission for up to two adults (as named on the visiting member’s card) and if it is a family membership, up to two children under 18. Children under 3 are free.

Reciprocal benefits apply to admission only and do not include additional guest or caregiver privileges, extra discounts, benefits, parking, special events, etc. that may be offered at your home zoo.

**Reciprocal zoo memberships do not allow access to special zoo events like Boo at the Zoo or Wonderland of Lights
