Thank you for joining us for this year’s Dollar Days Presented by Whataburger! These are some of our biggest and wildest days, but they are also some of our favorites! Dollar Days are our way of giving back, making the Zoo accessible for all, and saying “thank you” to our amazing community that supports us year-round.
