entrance fee (group discount)
The discounted admission amount charged per person when a group meets a place's minimum qualifying size.
The discounted group rate admission fee is the amount of money charged to an individual entering a usage zone when the person belongs to a group whose size merits a discount. The minimum group size varies significantly according to the institution or place charging the fee.
The amount is a rate for one member of the group, rather than the total charge for the whole party. The qualifying size belongs to the admission terms of the particular place.
The discount follows group membership and size. It is distinct from a reduced rate based on an individual visitor's status, such as the student admission fee.
