HALLOWEEN EVENTS AT THE AQUARIUM

Two big events

This October, the oceans glow at Birch Aquarium at Scripps Institution of Oceanography at UC San Diego. Two Halloween-themed events – Halloween Aglow and Oceans at Night: Halloween – will dazzle with the brand new Living Light Experience.

Discover the magic of bioluminescent plankton at an interactive station that shows how their glow is triggered by movement. Watch as marine life like corals and anemones light up with stunning biofluorescence under ultraviolet light. This experience is included in event admission. 

Halloween Aglow will once again light up Birch Aquarium at Scripps Institution of Oceanography at UC San Diego this October for two nights of Halloween fun with an educational twist. The event takes place Oct. 25 and 26 from 6 to 8:30 p.m. Modeled after Oceans at Night, the aquarium’s popular adults-only event, Halloween Aglow celebrates the wonders and mysteries of the ocean after dark. Halloween Aglow is fun for all ages.

Oceans at Night: Halloween brings the party! Birch Aquarium’s signature after-dark event is getting a Halloween twist. Ready for some skele-fun? Oceans at Night: Halloween is the place to be. Dive into an evening filled with cool science, delicious drinks, live music, games and more! Please note this is a 21+ event. Thursday, Oct. 24.

Tickets to both events are now on sale.
