Description

Join us for this evening event specially designed for people of all ages who will benefit from an adapted sensory-friendly exhibit experience. This sensory-friendly evening will feature an adapted indoor and outdoor environment with reduced sound, lighting, and motion. Marked quiet areas will be available around the aquarium, and skilled occupational therapy students and professionals will be available to provide support. A limited number of tickets will be sold to maintain a quieter environment. Explore the Aquarium's outdoor habitats, including beluga whales, seals, and sea lions, from 6:15 pm-8:00 pm. Discover inside exhibits with hundreds of vibrant fish and sea life and trek through Dino Seas: An Immersive Journey, where sound and motion will be reduced for a sensory-friendly experience, between 6:15 pm-8:15 pm. Please note: the theaters including those in Dino Seas and Undersea Explorer VR, will not be in operation during the event. The marine theater will be open as a walk-through exhibit, but there will not be a show. Documentation of diagnosis is not required. Family or other companions are welcome to accompany and join in on the fun! Advanced tickets are required for each party member, ages 3 and up. If you are interested in visiting Mystic Aquarium before 6:00 pm, regular Aquarium admission rates apply. To maintain a sensory-friendly experience, tickets will be limited and not sold at the door. All sales are final, and refunds for unused tickets will not be provided. If you have any questions, please reach out to educationinfo@mysticaquarium.org
