Complimentary Admission Days at the Zoo

The Houston Zoo wants to offer you complimentary admission!

According PAIGE HEWITT of the HOUSTON CHRONICLE ... "Rather than offering free admission on already-crowded holidays, patrons now will be admitted for free after 2 p.m. the first Tuesday of every month."

So which Tuesdays are the free days? The zoo website states "the Houston Zoo will offer free admission to our guests on the first Tuesday of every month from 2 p.m. until closing. During the months that Daylight Saving Time is in effect, the Houston Zoo closes at 7 p.m. (last admission at 6 p.m.). During Central Standard Time, the Houston Zoo closes 6 p.m. (last admission at 5 p.m.)."

Less crowds and less heat. Double bonus!
