Stay after dark and help us celebrate summer during Nighttime Zoo. Come "rock and roar" every day this summer with live music and other amazing entertainment experiences. There's so much to do, see and hear at Nighttime Zoo - it's a good thing summer hours are longer!

For the first time ever Birch Aquarium is offering extended summer hours. From July 1-August 31, 2021, the aquarium, which has traditionally closed at 5 p.m., will be open from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. daily.

During extended hours, all exhibits and hands-on activities — including the new  touch pool exhibit where guests can touch juvenile sharks — will remain open, and guests will also be able to explore a new 600-gallon cylindrical Moon Jelly experience in the Hall of Fishes.

As with any visit to Birch Aquarium, advanced reservations for a specific date and time are required, even for members.

It’s a whole new park after dark during SeaWorld’s Electric Ocean. Immerse yourself in exotic worlds of light and music in this family-friendly event.

Enjoy ALL NEW experiences including the Cirque Neon World, an astounding theatrical production that features a mix of circus skills, dance, and world-beat music. Plus, join the interactive dance floor at Club Sea Glow featuring a DJ that will keep you moving all night, leading up to the Ignite fireworks finale.

After hours of illuminated excitement, end the night with the dazzling display from Laser Reef, featuring a canopy of lasers and a powerful soundtrack. Electric Ocean is a SeaWorld event for all ages and will easily be the brightest memory of your visit.

There’s a new terror in town, and it’s got a killer smile. For the first time ever, Howl-O-Scream has arrived to transform the peaceful SeaWorld San Diego park you once knew into something sinister. When night falls and a carnival of horrifying creatures surrounds you, just try to put on a happy face.

Evade angry haunts as they rampage through scare zones. Seek shelter indoors, only to find you’ve entered a house of horrors. Quench your thirst for fear with fiendishly delicious cocktails, beer, and spirits. Feel the monstrous electricity of a live show. And deepen the thrills with a nighttime coaster ride.

Above all, try to resist the eyes of evil that threaten to follow you everywhere. Face your fears during SeaWorld San Diego’s Howl-O-Scream this fall. Happening select nights September 17 - October 31.
