ZooBilee is THIS WEEKEND – $1 Admission to ZooWorld

One of everyone’s favorite local animal attractions is having their annual ZooBilee festival this weekend and they’re inviting all to come at a discounted admission rate.  With kid’s admission normally $10, the $1 admission this weekend at ZooWorld is an amazing deal for you to take the family and enjoy a day at the zoo.

If you missed the opportunity to volunteer the last time at ZooWorld, you have another shot! Read about it here.

Details about the event.

ZooBilee is an annual event where ZooWorld opens up their doors for a discounted rate to invite the public to see their amazing animal friends and raise money to help care for them.

Date: September 29 and 30

Time: 9:30 am to 5 pm (last admission 4:30 pm)

Location: 9008 Front Beach Road, Panama City Beach, 32407

Cost for admission: $1 per person

VIP parking is available onsite for $3, but it will fill up extremely fast and very early, so plan on parking at Super Walmart and taking the free Kincaid shuttle bus.

And as if seeing some of these great animals wasn’t enough fun, ZooWorld will be holding raffles, will offer photo ops with some of the animals, they’ll have pony rides, food concessions and more!
