Online 12 Month Pass Renewal Information

Passes can only be renewed AFTER they have expired.

Pass-holders require their 18-digit pass number to enter. This number can be found on your pass.

In Pass Renewals, Pass-holders have the option of creating their own personal account. An account allows pass-holders to view their pass expiry date, and edit addresses and contact information.

The renewed pass will become valid for 365 days after you have received the emailed confirmation. To get the most out of your pass, we recommend that pass-holders wait until they are about to return to The Gardens for a visit before renewing their pass.

Pass holders can simply use their pass until the time that our admission gate attendant informs you that it has expired. You can then renew your card at the admission gate.

We have installed a self-serve scanner in the Information Centre that will display your expiry date when you swipe your pass through it.

You can create a pass-holder account for yourself in Renewals online, and view the expiry date in your account.
