4- What differentiates the Friends of the Biodôme from Espace pour la vie/Biodôme?
The Friends of the Biodôme is a non-profit organization who supports the Biodôme in its mission. We sell annual memberships as well as the Espace pour la vie Passport, we manage multiple projects for the Biodôme (notably the Espace pour la vie summer camps) and we also finance Biodôme’s various research and conservation projects.
Espace pour la vie is the entity overseeing the following museums:
- Biodôme
- Biosphère
- Insectarium
- Jardin botanique
- Planétarium Tinto Rio Alcan
5- Can I change the names of the people associated to my membership/passport?
This membership is non-transferable. It is not possible to change the name of the people registered at the time of purchase. However, it will be possible to do so once you renew your membership.
6- What is a program membership?
A program membership gives you the privileges of being a member of the Friends of the Biodôme without paying for the access to the Biodôme.
This type of membership is mostly for people who bought their Espace pour la vie Passport with either Espace pour la vie or another Friends society but would still enjoy our members’ privileges. Watch out! Access fees to the Biodôme may be required if the activity takes place inside the ecosystems and the program membership’s owner does not have a Espace pour la vie Passport.
The Friends of the Biodôme is the only society, partners with Espace pour la vie, offering this type of product.
7- Does my Friends of the Biodôme’s membership include the advantages of other Friends Society (Friends of the Garden, Friends of the Insectarium, Friends of the Planétarium)?
No. Our memberships only include the advantages of the Friends of the Biodôme’s members.
8- How can I add people to my current membership?
It is not possible to add more members to your family membership or modify the names already registered if the membership is full.
However, if a spot for adult or child was left empty at the time of purchase, you can send us an email, clearly explaining your request: lesamisdubiodome@montreal.ca.
