Sleep in the Deep - Birthday Request Form

Celebrate with us during our new Birthday Sleep in the Deep program! This specialized overnight experience will focus on building connections with each other and the animals of the Aquarium. We will build enrichment and learn more about how our animals grow up and what we can do to help!

Program Info:

A Birthday Sleep in the Deep program includes a guided program with an aquarium educator, an evening snack, light breakfast, and two, themed enrichment crafts: one to take home and one to share with an exhibit animal. Birthday overnights will also have the option to add a pizza dinner, to be ready when they arrive.

Birthday Overnight: $110 per participant

A minimum of 10 participants is required to book a Birthday overnight. Our current maximum is 40. (Groups larger than 40 are encouraged to request a Large Group overnight.)

Sleep in the Deep iron-on patches may also be purchased at $3/patch, no minimum necessary. Patches will be distributed concluding your program.

Pizza Dinner Option:

Mellow Mushroom pizza is also available at a discounted cost. Groups interested in a pizza dinner will be given access to our Pizza Order Form once their deposit has been submitted.
Please fill out this interest form for our Birthday Sleep in the Deep overnight program. We ask that you allow 72 business hours for a follow-up from the Education Department. This form does not guarantee or confirm an overnight.

Due to high demand, response time for booking requests may take longer than anticipated. Thank you for your patience.
