Free School Trips

As a part of Philadelphia Zoo’s Community Access Program (CAP) the Zoo provides free admission to students in kindergarten through 12th grade from Title I public and charter schools (with 50% or more of the students receiving free or reduced-priced lunches) in the Greater Philadelphia region and free admission to Title I and non-Title I schools within the following zip codes: 19104, 19131, 19139, 19143, 19151.

The form to request free field trips will be available here for our Fall 2023 season on August 28 for Philly schools and September 6 for all other schools. The request form will allow you to reserve between 25-120 free student tickets per school, depending on free ticket availability at the time of review. Additional students in excess of the allotted 120 per school or for trips requested after we have reached capacity will qualify for our reduced rate of $7.00 per student. Check back here in late August to access the request form!
