Admission for Brownsville residents is $4 per adult (ages 14+) and $3 per child (ages 2 to 13) on September 8, 9, and 10. The following weekend on September 15-17, discount days will be held for residents of Cameron County, Willacy County, and Matamoros, Mexico. Admission will be $6 per adult and $4 per child.
Upper Valley and out-of-valley residents can take advantage of this discount on October 13, 14, and 15. The admission rate will be $6 per adult and $4 per child for those living in Hidalgo County, Starr County, Reynosa, Nuevo Progreso, and outside of the Rio Grande Valley.
When purchasing tickets at the gate, guests will need to present proof of residency, such as a driver license or utility bill, to receive the discounted rate.
