The admission discount positions the Aquarium as the most affordable cultural attraction in Western New York. The reduced rate will not affect daily programming; guests will still enjoy access to both the Aquarium’s Main Building and Great Lakes 360, along with a full schedule of feedings and presentations. During All Hallows Seas, visitors can also participate in family-friendly Halloween-themed activities at no additional cost.
“We know that it can be hard to find family-friendly activities that are affordable, reliable, and not threatened by cold or unpredictable weather,” said Chad Fifer, president and CEO. “Now is the perfect time to visit the Aquarium –– whether for events like All Hallows Seas or just to get out of the house over the coming months. We want to invite as many people as we can to come explore the aquatic world.”
This year’s Halloween event features a villainous twist! Guests who visit during All Hallows Seas: Cursed Currents will have the opportunity to meet and sing-along with the Sea Witch character performer from Emmalee’s Memories. Other activities include a scavenger hunt among the Aquarium’s exhibits, Halloween crafts, an oddities and curiosities station, free facepainting, and themed programming. All Hallows Seas: Cursed Currents will take place on Sunday, Oct. 18 and Sunday, Oct. 25. All activities are included with general admission and run from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. (Facepainting from 10 a.m. – 1 p.m.).
Please note there will not be any sea lion presentations as the Aquarium’s two California sea lions are currently off exhibit for exhibit maintenance.
The Aquarium is open from 9am to 5pm daily. Additional information can be found at https://aquariumofniagara.org/admissions/.
