No child wants to pull a coat on over their costume, so we’re excited to offer a Halloween event that’s perfect for any weather. The not-so-spooky bash features an activity booklet spotlighting misunderstood animals, underwater jack-o’-lanterns, costumed diver interactions, Halloween-themed décor and music, animal encounters, pop-up appearances by our friendly landshark mascot Finn and a rotating array of nightly entertainment that ranges from face painting to bubbles to fortune telling.
A KultureCity Sensory Inclusive™ certified venue, the Aquarium is also offering a sensory friendly Halloween experience on October 28 from 5 to 8 p.m. with limited noise, softened lighting and adjusted activities to ensure a comfortable environment for those who could benefit from a reduction in external stimuli.
The evening still features entertainment, underwater jack-o-lanterns, diver interactions, Halloween-themed décor, an activity booklet and a treat bag for the youngsters as they exit.
