Potter Park Zoo

General Admission / 50% discount with valid college student ID

Spartans and Wolverines are invited to celebrate the big game festivities with a special day at Potter Park Zoo!

On Sunday, September 18, the Zoo’s animal residents will be making their predictions on the outcome of October’s momentous football game. Beginning at 1pm, Zoo visitors will see the animals in action as they get special picnic treats in honor of the long-standing rivalry between Michigan State University and the University of Michigan.

Guests are encouraged to show their team spirit by wearing either MSU or U of M colors.

Guests can also make donations in honor of their favorite team; all proceeds will go toward animal enrichment at Potter Park Zoo. At the end of the event, the total number of donations will be tallied to determine a winner.

Don't forget to show your college student ID at the admission gate to receive a 50% discount on the price of your admission!
