Morphology
The meaning is directly derivable from combining 'admission' (money paid to gain entry) with 'price' (amount of money required), so the compound denotes the amount charged to enter. This compositional, noun-noun pattern is cross-linguistically common (e.g., 'entrance fee') and would be clear to a B1 learner who knows both constituents.
Etymology
Admission price comes from the simple image of a gate or door where someone asks for money before letting you in. The word admission means being allowed in and price is the cost, so together it means the amount you must pay to 'enter' a place or event.
