Montgomery County residents will only need to pay half price for the rest of the year to get into Norristown’s Elmwood Park Zoo.

Families throughout Montgomery County can visit the Elmwood Park Zoo in Norristown as local residents can visit the attraction for half price through 2025.

Officials announced the new discount for local residents during an event on Wednesday, March 26, 2025.

Now through the end of the year, officials said, any resident of Montgomery County will be able to receive half-price admission for the Elmwood Park Zoo, which is owned and operated by the non-profit Norristown Zoological Society.

The discount comes thanks to the genericity of Frank Engro, who was a businessman and Montgomery County resident, officials with the zoo said.

Also, officials said, the zoo's Frank & Paige Engro Veterinary Health Center opened in 2024.
