Program on pause

Please note: the Aquarium has paused all on-site public programming and temporarily closed to the public. This temporary closure impacts all educational programming that normally takes place at the Vancouver Aquarium. We look forward to welcoming back students, teachers, parents and all life-long learners when the Aquarium reopens.
