Hundreds of big kids enjoyed the latest After Hours adults-only event and exhibit at the Vancouver Aquarium.

Having no kids running around was definitely as big of an attraction as being able to experience a variety of animals after dark in their habitats. Beer and cocktails flowed, lectures were informative, dives were demonstrated and dolphins were trained. There was also a screening of a 4D film and hands-on access to the Wet Lab.

The next event in the series takes place October 27th, 2016. Here’s a taste of what you can expect:

  • Food, beer and wine available for purchase
  • An after dark fun and social atmosphere
  • Informative specialty programming
  • Guest lectures about coastal locals
  • Access to aquatic galleries
  • 4D film screening
  • Hands-on learning in the Wet Lab
  • Experience sea life after dark

Here are your photos from the August event:
