✨ Tickets start at $19.95 for children (3-12) and $24.95 for adults. Hogle Zoo members save $2! Buy your tickets at https://www.hoglezoo.org/hogle-holidays/.
TEMPORARY PAID PARKING FROM DECEMBER 2-5, 2026
Our neighbors at This is the Place Heritage Park will host their annual Christkindlmarkt Wednesday, December 2 through Saturday, December 5, from 11 AM to 8 PM, increasing parking demand in the area.
Because this creates unusually high parking demand beyond our control, we're implementing a temporary parking plan to help ensure zoo guests and members have access to parking in our lot.
PARKING FEE
A $40 parking fee will apply to vehicles entering the zoo parking lot from December 2-5, 2026, during these hours:
Daytime zoo hours: 10 AM–5 PM
Hogle Holidays: 5:30–9:00 PM
Who parks for free?
Zoo members visiting during the day or attending Hogle Holidays.
Guests with prepaid daytime admission or Hogle Holidays tickets. Please have your digital tickets or membership card ready at the main gate to show the parking attendant.
Purchasing tickets at the zoo?
Guests purchasing tickets in person can apply their $40 parking fee toward their ticket purchase.
PARKING ENTRANCE AND EXITS
To help manage traffic flow, all vehicles must enter through the main parking entrance north of the ticket window. Guests will pay the parking fee or show their tickets or membership card at this entrance.
The two parking exits will be located east of the main entrance, at Sunnyside Avenue and Crestview Drive.
Please follow the posted signage and directions from the parking team.
WE APPRECIATE YOUR UNDERSTANDING
We recognize that this is an additional consideration when planning your visit. The temporary parking fee is intended to help manage parking demand during this neighboring event and preserve parking availability for zoo guests and members.
