The transition from summer to fall isn’t the only shift happening this season – a changing tide is also coming to one of Vancouver’s most vibrant and versatile venues. 

Whether you’re a fervent fall lover or a Halloween fan, prepare for a frenzy of family-friendly fun in Stanley Park and dive into a one-of-a-kind autumnal adventure at Vancouver Aquarium’s Fin-tastic Fall Days

Scaling to new heights, this year’s fall festivities are rearing to be the best yet, inviting guests to marvel at the magical wonders of the sea through immersive and interactive experiences that promise epic adventures, popular programs and spirited seasonal exhibits.

When it comes to the potential opportunities for fun at the aquarium this fall, any-fin is possible.

From Sept 28 to Oct 31, guests are encouraged to explore the aquarium in a new and creative way, with can’t-miss exhibits you have to sea to believe. 

We’re talking kelp forest mazes, spooky scavenger hunts and even a hands-on Shipwreck Wet Lab experience all set against a backdrop of fun seasonally-themed décor. Admire the aquarium’s 65,000 incredible aquatic ambassadors and their equally handsome habitats as you explore below the surface.  

But that’s not all. Guests will also have the opportunity to connect with curious creatures through seasonal animal programs, including fang-tastic Bat Talks! After that, prepare to be perplexed at the impressive precision of the aquarium’s skilled underwater pumpkin carvers, who will be on-site sculpting gourd-geous creations surrounded by their fishy friends from Oct 26 to 31.

After all of this excitement, you’ll have worked up quite the appetite. You’re in luck! Visitors can savour the flavours of fall with tasty seasonal treats and the return of the aquarium’s award-winning sustainable seafood chowder. 

Treat yourself and your loved ones to an epic underwater adventure today!
