TAMPA, Fla. (Nov. 24, 2015) – Tampa’s Lowry Park Zoo is transforming the ways guests can choose to visit the Zoo through the introduction of new ticket and new membership programs.  Starting today, any Zoo guest, adult or child, can “pay for a day, come back the rest of year” (through 2016) with the new ZooperPass. Additionally, the Zoo is introducing a new annual membership program with three simple options that can easily be tailored to individual needs, offering greater value and improved benefits, including a unique “plus guest” privilege. Zoo members can also take advantage of free access to our 2016 seasonal event series (new Summer Sunset Celebration, ZooBoo and new Christmas in the Wild), along with discounts on separate ticket events.

            “We’re reshaping the way our guests can personalize their visits to our world class Zoo,” said Tampa’s Lowry Park Zoo CEO Joe Couceiro. “Our goal is to offer our visitors absolutely the best value on engaging and unforgettable connections to wildlife, as well as to each other.”
