Regular zoo admissions on other days are $18.50 for adults, $14.81 for seniors (60 and up) and youth (13-17) and $10 for children (3-12). Children under three are free.

The zoo had promoted $10 Tuesdays since admission prices rose with the opening of the centrepiece Journey to Churchill exhibit last summer, which showcases the polar bears.
