Reciprocal Zoos
Friends of the Topeka Zoo partners with zoos and aquariums around the country to offer free or discounted admission rates to its members. Members must present their FOTZ membership card and a photo ID to receive reciprocity. As part of our agreement with reciprocating institutions, FOTZ is not permitted to call or fax proof of membership to other zoos to allow admittance. Please remember to take your membership card with you, and allow 7 to 10 working days prior to your trip to process new or renewal FOTZ membership cards.
Please contact the zoo or aquarium you wish to visit in advance to obtain complete details. Each institution reserves the right to interpret membership categories and benefits as they deem appropriate. Reciprocity does not apply to parking, special exhibit or other charges that may be applicable at other institutions. The following list of reciprocal zoos is subject to change without notice:
