Upcoming Events at Maritime Aquarium!

There's lots to do at the Martime Aquarium this August! Check out these cool events and activities!

See Dunkirk in the IMAX theater!

The Maritime Aquarium is the ONLY theater in Connecticut showing Dunkirk, a WWII drama, in 'immersive' 70mm IMAX film format! Check it out Monday-Thursday at 7 pm, and Friday-Sunday at 7 & 9:30 pm. Film is rated PG-13 for intense war scenes and some language. Purchase tickets here.

Take a cruise!

There are lots of different cruises to choose from, such as TGIF, Lighthouse, Sunset, and Marine Life Encounter cruises - you may even see a humpback whale! This website has descriptions, days, and times for each cruise, as well as tickets to purchase. 

Join the aquarium for a family sleepover!
