Possibly there will be free admission during the summer holidays Dortmund Zoo give. At least the city council is already discussing it. But there is still a dispute between the parties. The whole thing will be so fixed for him Dortmund Zoo not be yet.
Zoo Dortmund: Free entry for children planned – but there is a problem
The SPD, which is currently leading the opposition in Dortmund, had already requested in the Committee for Culture, Sport and Leisure at the end of May that children and young people up to the age of 18 and trainees up to the age of 25 be given free entry to the Westfalenpark during the summer holidays. The governing city administration, made up of the Greens and the CDU, rejected this and instead referred to their own idea of introducing a family card.

This is Dortmund Zoo:
- opened on May 24, 1953 as Tierpark Dortmund
- Motto: “The park among the zoos”
- Total area: 28 hectares (11 hectares expansion area)
- provides a home for around 1,425 animals of 190 species. The focus is on species from South America
- the zoo attracts more than 440,000 visitors in a normal year

The administration should check this idea for profitability and suitability by the end of June. The result is now clear: Politicians should rather rely on existing offers and refrain from a family card. But now green-black is going further and has another new proposal up its sleeve. And like the SPD proposal, it provides free entry during the holidays in Dortmund!

Zoo Dortmund: Administration should check free entry for a year
And not only in the Westfalenpark, but also in the zoo. Since families have less and less money in view of the rising cost of living, they would spend the holidays at home in Dortmund. Free admission to the zoo and Westfalenpark would therefore be a support measure, according to the application paper, “Ruhr news“. The target group are children, pupils, trainees and students up to and including 27 years of age.
