‘Tis the season for family, friends and fish! All three were in abundance last weekend as the National Aquarium celebrated Dollar Days Weekend and welcomed more than 13,000 people with $1 admission price despite the snowy, cold weather. Near-capacity crowds filled the Aquarium on both days, eager to escape the cold, enjoy the tropical temperatures of the Rainforest and see the Aquarium’s newest exhibit, Jellies Invasion. Guests also enjoyed special $1 treats in the Aquarium cafés and had the opportunity to purchase $1 items from the gift shop.

The National Aquarium is proud to announce that in a recent survey of hands raised, not only do children love presents, but they also love marine animals! The National Aquarium offers Immersion Tours, Aquadopts, and Memberships to enhance fun and learning this holiday season.

Winter is quickly approaching and so is the return of a holiday classic to the National Aquarium, Baltimore! Beginning November 14, visitors are invited to embark on a cold winter’s journey that’s sure to warm your heart, and make you believe. The Polar Express™ 4-D Experience transforms the holiday movie into a 20-minute, action-packed movie experience that will keep young viewers on their edge of their seats through special effects that are exclusive to the 4-D theater experience!
