Virginia Zoo offers free admission on Fridays in February

You can get in free at the Virginia Zoo on Fridays in February!

NORFOLK, Va. — It's time to plan a trip to the zoo this month! The Virginia Zoo is offering free admission on Fridays in February.

The zoo said it's a great way to see what the animals are up to during the winter.

“You’ll find that some of them are more active in the cooler temps – like the red pandas and the cheetahs," said Greg Bockheim, Executive Director of the Virginia Zoo. 

"It’s also a great opportunity to check out our new augmented reality tour, which is only available for a limited time."

Free Fridays in February are only valid on regular zoo admission.

The zoo is open daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Virginia Zoo recently launched an augmented reality tour that gives visitors information about the animals, photos, and videos.

The AR tour is in collaboration with ECPI University and Life Preserve.
