ZooAmerica Offers Half-Price Admission on Fridays in February 2026
All Visitors Can Experience the 11-Acre Zoo in Hershey at a Discounted Rate
Looking for a family-friendly outing to beat cabin fever? ZooAmerica North American Wildlife Park is now open daily from 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. in February, and it’s an extra sweet month to visit.
The 11-acre Zoo in Hershey launched a Fantastic Fridays ticket offer for 50 percent off regular and junior/senior admission every Friday in February. Tickets can be purchased in advance online or in person on Fridays at the Admissions Building to redeem the savings.
Valentine's Day Weekend Activities
As another sweet offering, guests can watch Zoo naturalists give a “chocolate-covered strawberry” enrichment to select animals at 1 p.m. on Saturdays in February. This activity is included with admission.
Plus, adult animal lovers can further spice up their Valentine’s Day with the Animal Attraction Adult Camp on Feb. 8 and 14 from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. Participants will learn all about how animals “woo” each other through an up-close look at ambassador animals, enrichment activities, a rock painting craft and more! The cost for a single session is $75 per person.
In general, many of the North American animals that reside outdoors are more active this time of year. Guests often see the gray wolves running around their habitat, hear the river otters "talking" to each other and so much more.
Don't forget: ZooAmerica Pass Holders and 2026 Hersheypark Season Pass Holders receive unlimited, year-round visits to the Zoo, even when Hersheypark amusement park is closed during the off-season.
