After several years without a price change, the zoo will introduce a moderate price increase for day tickets and annual passes from 1 February 2022. The entrance fee for adults will rise to €18. For children, the admission will increase from €6 to €7. The small family day ticket (one parent and their children or children living in the same household between the ages of four and 14) will rise from €19 to €22, the large family day ticket (both parents and their children or children living in the same household between four and 14 years) will now be €39. In addition, parking fees will increase to €6 per day.

The last price increase for general admission took place five years ago. "Hellabrunn Zoo has to act in a commercially responsible manner. Rising costs for energy, animal feed and staff are forcing Hellabrunn to act with foresight in order to ensure the extensive zoo operations can be maintained," says Rasem Baban, zoological director of Hellabrunn Zoo. "The coronavirus pandemic and the many weeks of closure that occurred as a result have left their mark - so the price adjustment is unavoidable this year, but the increase is quite moderate."

Annual pass prices will also increase - for the first time in almost twenty years. An annual pass will now cost €59 for adults and €30 for children. For families, the price increases to € 59 (small family annual pass) or €118 (large family annual pass). "For Munich residents who visit the zoo regularly, buying an annual pass will still be worthwhile - the cost of the annual pass is covered after just three visits a year," adds Baban.

Of course, the zoo will continue to offer reduced rates for schoolchildren, students, senior citizens, the severely disabled and groups. In addition, holders of the München-Pass (Munich City Pass) will also continue to receive the stipulated discount on day tickets and annual passes.

Hellabrunn Zoo is one of the largest and most renowned scientifically-led zoos in Germany. The zoo is constantly improving its facilities with numerous investments in animal enclosures and houses, but also in education programmes for visitors. "This year's price adjustment is essential to ensure the continued existence of Hellabrunn Zoo, which engages with important issues such as species conservation, environmental education and animal welfare. Even after the increase that is now required, Hellabrunn is still one of the cheapest city zoos in the German-speaking area," says Verena Dietl, Mayoress and Chair of the Supervisory Board.
