When the Baton Rouge Zoo opened its doors on Easter Sunday in 1970, admission was 50 cents per person. So this June, BREC’s Baton Rouge Zoo continues to celebrate its fiftieth anniversary with the community by offering a discounted admission rate every Wednesday between the hours of 2 pm–4 pm, when guests can enjoy 50 cent (plus tax) admission for all ages.
