As long as your group has scheduled a reservation with our office, your group can purchase group rate tickets at our admissions booth providing they state the name of your group. If you are hosting an event at the park, please call the park office if you wish to make table reservations. Additionally, children 12 & under who schedule their birthday party at the park will receive a birthday badge and a $4 refillable animal food Souvenir Cup voucher with the purchase of 20 or more prepaid passes.
