I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'a charge' is the definition.
(entrance fee is a kind of charge)

I can't explain the rest of the clue.

(Other definitions for entrance fee that I've seen before include "Getting in charge" , "Admission charge" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
