About Birmingham Zoo Military Discounts

The Birmingham Zoo in Alabama houses hundreds of animals across its exhibits and is one of the state's most-visited attractions. The Birmingham Zoo military discount is a published admission rate: $20 tax-inclusive, compared with $24 for a standard adult ticket. It covers active duty, retired, veteran, and reserve service members, and (unusually for zoo discounts) extends the same rate to military spouses and dependents with proper ID. One key detail: the military rate must be purchased at the zoo itself. Online checkout does not offer it, so buy at the ticket window and have your military or spouse/dependent ID ready.

Birmingham Zoo Military Discount FAQ

Common questions about Birmingham Zoo military discounts

Yes. Military visitors pay a $20 tax-inclusive admission rate instead of the standard $24 adult price.

Active duty, retired, veteran, and reserve members qualify, and the rate also includes military spouses and dependents with a valid spouse/dependent ID.

No. The zoo states the military rate must be purchased onsite, with military and/or spouse/dependent ID shown at the window.

The zoo's published list names Active/Retired/Veteran/Reserve members. National Guard is not specifically listed, so confirm with the zoo before visiting.

Military spouses and dependents show a spouse or dependent ID at the Birmingham Zoo ticket window to receive the same flat military admission rate as service members. Active duty, retired, reserve, and veteran members present their own military ID. The rate is only sold onsite, so have the ID ready when you reach the window.

The Birmingham Zoo military rate is tax inclusive, so the price quoted at the ticket window is the total you pay for admission. That makes the savings against the standard adult ticket slightly larger than the face difference suggests. Show your military, spouse, or dependent ID at the window, since the rate cannot be purchased online.

It is a flat admission rate rather than a percentage off, set below the standard adult ticket price and inclusive of tax. The Birmingham Zoo offers this rate to active duty, retired, reserve, and veteran service members and extends it to spouses and dependents with proper ID. Purchase it at the zoo's ticket windows, not through online checkout.
