Shows
On May 8, 2012, the Vancouver Aquarium stayed open late and hosted Dreamnight—a special opportunity for children with life-threatening illnesses and their families to visit the Aquarium. As many of these children are unable to visit the Aquarium during our regular hours, Dreamnight gives them an opportunity to connect with aquatic animals and take part in fun activities in a safe and controlled environment, away from their hospital beds. This year we welcomed 500 children, plus their families, to the Aquarium. This event is by invite only.
From live entertainment by award-winning children’s performers Bobs & Lolo, to face painting and fun activities, the evening is filled with smiles, laughter and wonder. Children enjoy watching the beluga and dolphin shows, interacting with interesting creatures in the Wet Lab and being entertained by our beloved beluga mascot, Bee Bop.
Come back soon for more information about when our next Dreamnight will take place.
