The digital pass is a barcode you access on your mobile device in place of a paper or plastic card. It allows you to enter the Park quicker, receive your discounts in the gift shop, etc. You can access your barcodes by clicking the link in your confirmation email from your season pass purchase.
Did you purchase a Silver or Gold Season Pass? You'll also have digital passes for some of your perks such as Single Day tickets and goat feedings that can be redeemed throughout the season!
You can purchase season passes online, over the phone (316-794-8954), or come by Tanganyika to purchase them.
The season passes expire at the end of the season they were purchased, which is generally in November.
No. Each pass is for a single individual. For example, our family of five from above (John, Jane, Luke, Clare, and Anna) want to visit TWP using season passes, they would purchase five season passes; one for each person. They couldn't purchase three season passes to mix and match between them. For instance:

If you have a situation that requires a different person to attend such as foster children, caregivers, etc, check out our new Guest Pass that can be added to the account.
We no longer require reservations to visit the Park! Keep in mind the Park will be busier during Spring Break and holidays.
We don't mail out season pass cards. However, you can use digital passes or print out your own cards by accessing them through them through your email.
Did you purchase a Silver or Gold Season Pass? Visit the Perks Booth on your first visit to receive your printed card!
The best way is to purchase or upgrade your pass to the Gold or Silver level. The Silver Pass includes 5 feedings each time you visit, and the Gold Pass includes unlimited feedings each time you visit. Plus, the Gold Pass doesn't require you to make reservations for the hippo feeding, rhino feeding, or lemur island. Both of them have also been bundled with tons of other perks.
Otherwise, you will have the option to purchase an Encounter wristband (5 feedings for $10) or Unlimited wristband (unlimited feedings for the day, for $25) during your visit. This wristband is not shareable and is for the person wearing it.
The season pass is only good for visits during normal business hours. It does not include admission to special events like Twilight Tour or Pumpkins at the Park. However, it does entitle you to discounts on special events mentioned above.
The Guest Pass is not tied to a specific person like the Season Pass; it is transferable. This allows anyone to visit on that Guest Pass when attending with a season pass holder on the same account. You can use each Guest Pass once per day. The Guest Pass is just $149.99 and ideal for:
There isn't currently an option to purchase one pass that would include the entire family. It is something we have considered, but don't offer at this time.
You do NOT need an ID (driver's license, passport, etc.) to purchase passes. However, adults will need a photo ID to enter the park unless they have uploaded their photos to their account.
Your child does not need an ID to be checked in. However, we recommend that their photo is uploaded on their pass so we can ensure it is them.
