Skip the long lines and start a feel-good Black Friday tradition. Bring a toy, get 50% off admission and turn the day into a family adventure at the Gulf Breeze Zoo. Meet more than 800 animals, ride the train, swap gift ideas, then shop later knowing you helped a local child feel seen and celebrated.
Bring one new, unwrapped toy valued at $10 or more for each discounted admission. The offer is valid on single-ticket admission only. New annual memberships are not eligible. Need ideas? Acceptable toys will be available for purchase in Admissions.
Your donation supports the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots program during its 78th annual campaign. Since 2012, Gulf Breeze Zoo has partnered with Toys for Tots to brighten holidays for families across Santa Rosa and Escambia counties.
All toys are distributed locally by the Marine Corps Reserve, making a direct impact here at home.
