Lower ticket price for schools & ArkEd Membership launched

We are delighted to announce that school tickets for The Ark have been lowered to €5 per child, with an Early-Bird ticket price of €4.50. This change means that schools can enjoy a substantial reduction in ticket price (full-price tickets were formerly €6.50), while designated disadvantaged schools and schools outside the greater Dublin area can still access tickets at the lower €4.50 price point, provided they are booked within the early-bird window by an ArkEd Member.

To coincide with the new schools ticket price, The Ark has also launched ArkEd, a new membership scheme for teachers and principals. Membership of ArkEd is free and members will be able to enjoy a range of benefits throughout the year, including a priority booking period for schools and professional development events at The Ark, access to early-bird prices before booking opens to non-members, inclusion in a draw each term for a free visit to The Ark for their class, discounts on selected professional development courses, priority access to free special events at The Ark and exclusive access to pre/post-visit education support packs.

To celebrate the launch of the ArkEd Membership programme, all new members joining during before 25 October will be entered into a draw to win an overnight stay for 2 people at the luxury Rathsallagh House on Friday 1 November 2013.

Teachers wishing to join the ArkEd Membership scheheme can do so at ark.ie/schools or by calling the box office on 01 670 7788.
