Located adjacent to downtown San Diego in Balboa Park, the Zoo is 100 acres in size and is home to more than 4,000 animals representing more than 800 species from around the world. Spend the day monkeying around in our tropical oasis as you visit amazing habitats for animals such as gorillas, Komodo dragons, tigers, flamingos, mandrills, polar bears, birds of paradise, giant tortoises, elephants, and more.
Kids Free presented by Mission Fed gives free admission to children ages 11 and younger, while providing special weekend activities for the entire family. HalGLOWeen—the Zoo’s Halloween event—also returns during Kids Free month.

Purchase your adult ticket for October below or visit the Zoo any time during the month of October to get your Kids Go Free offer.
