Added Perks for Families

Besides free entry, there will be face painting for kids near the main entrance, thanks to a local artist from Kings Creation Face Painting. Staff members will also be on hand near the Wolf Woods Education Center and gift shop to answer questions and chat with you.

Improving Connectivity Around the Zoo

The zoo is getting some helpful upgrades too. High-traffic areas like the entrance, gift shop, administrative offices, and animal exhibits are getting faster internet service to make things run better for visitors and staff. Some exhibits will even use the faster connection to power streaming features that improve the learning experience.

A Longstanding Community Favorite

Ross Park Zoo has been part of Binghamton life for 150 years, giving families a place to relax, explore, and connect with wildlife. Offering a free day at the zoo is a way to make sure more people can enjoy it especially those who might not always have the chance.
