"An excellent free activity to take the kids to this month (once the rain dies down), as the San Francisco Zoo will offer free admission to kids 11 and under for the entire month of January. The pesky rainstorms that have characterized every single day of 2026 so far are expected to finally clear up and end sometime around midnight tonight. And then we are likely looking at dry weather for the rest of the week, and likely the weekend too."
"And if you buy your tickets online, you'll still have to pay the $1 service fee for the free kids' ticket. But if you walk right up to the box office and buy your tickets there, those kids' tickets will indeed be absolutely free. Each adult admission ticket ($26 for SF residents, $29 for non-residents) allows for five free kids' admission tickets."
The San Francisco Zoo & Gardens is offering free admission to children ages 2 through 11 for the entire month of January, through Saturday, January 31. Each adult admission ($26 for San Francisco residents, $29 for non-residents) allows for up to five free children's admissions. Online bookings for free children's tickets incur a $1 service fee, while box-office purchases for children are completely free. Interim co-CEO Cassandra Costello highlighted that the zoo is open year-round and that animal behaviors vary daily, giving visitors different experiences such as giraffes having breakfast or wolverines wrestling in snow. New male gorilla Cecil debuted in mid-October.
