The legendary Sir David Attenborough is turning 100 years old this Friday, and to celebrate, Knowsley Safari is offering free visits.
But it’s only for people with one specific first name.
To mark the 100th birthday of the world’s most influential natural history broadcaster – who was born on 8 May 1926 – popular Merseyside attraction, Knowsley Safari, is offering free access to all visitors who share the name David for one day only this week.
The free tickets honour Sir David’s centenary, while also marking Knowsley Safari’s own ongoing commitment to conservation, education, and protecting wildlife for future generations.
From supporting international breeding programmes for endangered species, to engaging young audiences with conservation-led learning, Knowsley Safari says it continues to campaign for ‘the same values’ Sir David has championed throughout his life.
The attraction says many of its staff were inspired by Sir David Attenborough‘s work to pursue careers in conservation and animal care, which is why this offer of free entry to those with his name is so fitting.
To claim your free visit, all Davids need to do is bring a valid photo ID confirming their name, pre-book the rest of your group online (all the non-Davids), and then show at the pay lanes when you scan the rest of your group’s ticket.
“Sir David Attenborough has inspired generations to care more deeply about the natural world,” commented Helena Berry, who is the Head of Marketing and Sales at Knowsley Safari.
“His work has led to the successful conservation careers of many, some of whom are our staff. As Sir David marks his 100th birthday, we want to celebrate his extraordinary legacy with our visitors, and welcoming Davids to the Safari for free is a joyful way to applaud an incredible man who has given so much to Merseyside, wildlife and the planet.”
Davids can visit Knowsley Safari this Friday 8 May, and you can find out more and book your free tickets online here.
