Membership Gift Vouchers
(the perfect gift to give someone else)

The perfect option if you would like to purchase a membership for someone other than yourself!

Membership Gift Vouchers are preloaded with the value of the level of your choose, similar to a gift card, but only redeemable for a membership here at the Louisville Zoo. They are sent directly to your email so you can print them out or forward them to your gift recipient, making them fast, easy and convenient.

The best part of about a Gift Voucher is that it only becomes an active Louisville Zoo membership when it is redeemed. This allows your recipient to decide when their year long membership starts and prevents losing time between when it is purchased and their first visit.

Please note: when purchasing a Gift Voucher all the information collected is for you as the purchaser. You will be prompted to add a gift recipient name after completing your purchase. Don’t worry, we will collect all of the information needed when the Gift Voucher is redeemed.

Important Things to Keep in Mind

  • If you are a current or recently lapsed member, DO NOT CREATE A PROFILE! If you have not setup a password or have forgotten it, use the Create/Forgot Password link on the webstore to access you account. The information you enter must match what we already have on file or the renewal will not link to your account.
  • Memberships purchased using the links below become active the day they are purchased or in the case of a renewal the day after the current membership expires.
