Q: Who can attend the Autism Awareness Day event?

A: The event is open to anyone in the community who is interested in helping

spread Autism awareness. So ask friends, family, neighbors, teachers, and therapists to come and join us.

Q: I have a Philadelphia Zoo membership, do I need to purchase separate tickets

for the Autism Awareness Day event?

admission. The group ticket rate for the day is for those who do not have a

membership.

event?

I get tickets to the event?

A: Not to worry! There will be a special designated ticket booth at the Zoo on the

day of the event where admission tickets can be purchased at the discounted group

rate for the day. Please note however that tickets purchased on the day of the event

can only be used for that day’s admission. Tickets and Parking can also be purchased and printed online. Refer to the ticket order form for directions. Go to

fundraiser?
