San Antonio Zoo offering locals 80% discount on tickets Thanksgiving weekend

The San Antonio Zoo is offering $8 admission for Bexar County residents on Friday, Nov. 29 and Sunday, Dec. 1, an 80% discount off regular admission. However, that special rate doesn't apply on Saturday, Nov. 30, during which it will charge regular admission. Other than the entrance to the zoo, which features more than 750 unique and exotic species, those who visit Friday or Sunday — dubbed Locals Days — will also gain access to the park’s annual “Zoo Lights” holiday event.
