NIGHTLIFE AT ODYSEA AQUARIUM LAUNCHES THIS MONTH

New event featuring food, beverages and live music geared toward the 21 and over crowd

OdySea Aquarium, the largest aquarium in the Southwest, introduces an all-new after-hours adventure designed for an “adults-only” experience on Thursday, October 19th, November 16th and November 30th from 6:00p.m-10:00 p.m.

“NightLife at the Aquarium shows OdySea in a whole new way, allowing our adult guests to experience the aquarium in a relaxed, upscale atmosphere with special never seen before access to specific exhibits and behind-the-scenes areas,” says Greg Charbeneau, General Manager of OdySea Aquarium.

NightLife at the Aquarium offers adult guests the opportunity to enjoy a quiet night inside the aquarium in a “child-free” environment — whether it’s a parents’ night out or a special date or friends’ get-together. Full beverage service will be available at three bars throughout the aquarium and the transformed Lighthouse Café will feature a dinner menu for two including one appetizer, two entrees and dessert for just $21. The entire ambiance and décor of the aquarium will be given an “after-dark” makeover, with two NightLife “Chill Zone” Lounges featuring tables, comfortable seating options, and dimmed overhead fixtures for the ultimate date-night mood lighting.  The Deep Ocean Theater will feature live acoustic entertainment along with chaise lounges and love seats designed for relaxation. Other special NightLife offerings include appearances by the animal ambassadors, mini tours and guided “sneak peeks” in designated exhibits and back-of-house areas otherwise closed to the public, and Magic Memories exclusive photos to commemorate each guest’s visit.

NightLife at OdySea Aquarium is for guests 21 and over only and admission tickets are available for online presale for $21, with tickets at the door costing $25. OdySea Aquarium lifetime and annual pass holders receive free admission to NightLife at the Aquarium and reservations are not required.  Food and beverages purchases are additional.  A valid ID is required upon entry.
