Revolution Ridge, the largest expansion in our 63-year history, opens on June 4. GSC members are invited to preview the new space on June 3 (members, be sure to bring your membership card and photo ID for this exclusive access).
Revolution Ridge features nine new animal exhibits, a state-of-the-art animal hospital where you can watch animal care in action, a conservation center that allows you to look into research labs and learn about projects that previously took place behind the scenes. In addition, there are more than 11 acres of public gathering and green space, an elevated boardwalk, new restroom facilities (including a family bathroom) and so much more!
Effective opening day, June 4, we’ll be implementing a moderate and competitive increase in ticket and membership pricing that will support new jobs, animals, infrastructure and community events.
General admission ticket prices will increase by $3.50 for adults and seniors, and $2.50 for children. The new general admission prices are as follows:
