CHULA VISTA, Calif. — Soak in sunny days that sweep the clouds away at Sesame Place San Diego with this new limited-time deal offering free admission to first responders.
To celebrate those that serve the community, the local theme park based on the iconic TV show will be offering free one-day admission tickets to first responders, including police officers, firefighters and emergency medical technicians. Eligible San Diegans will also have the option to purchase up to six tickets at $29.99 each.
The deal runs during the park’s First Responders Weekend from Aug. 25 to Aug. 27 — a fun-packed weekend that allows guests to see their favorite Sesame Street friends dressed as first responders, meet local first responders, enjoy a “special heroes” dance party and more.
To receive the weekend’s special deal, first responders must present a valid active ID and register online at GovX.com in advance and verify their proof of service through the ID.me qualification process, according to the theme park.
