One of the benefits of becoming a member of Nashville Zoo is discounted admission (50% unless noted below) to other zoos and aquariums with which we share a reciprocal agreement. See list of reciprocal zoos by state below.
When visiting another zoo or aquarium, it is always a good idea to call ahead before you visit to confirm participation in the Reciprocal Admissions program and any restrictions that may apply. Remember to take proof of your Nashville Zoo membership and ID with you.
The program covers discounted admissionto the main facility on normal operating days and hours. This may exclude exhibits or events requiring an additional fee and other benefits such as parking, discounts and member events.Facilities without an admission fee may opt to offer an in-park discount instead.Each facility determines its own policies; the number of persons discounted is not necessarily equal to the persons listed on your membership card.Not all AZA institutions participate in the Reciprocal Admissions Program.
