Sea Life Nights 2019
Party with penguins and crocodiles at the aquarium.
Overview
If you've ever turned up at a house party and been sorely disappointed by the lack of penguins, this is the event for you. The Melbourne Sea Life Aquarium is throwing another series of aquarium parties — because why the heck not?
The Friday night series kicks off with a party on February 8, and is the perfect opportunity to stare down a fish right in his slimy eye while sipping a cocktail. Aquarium parties will then be held in March, May, August and finish with a Halloween-themed soirée in November. Tickets are a bit exxy at $49 for early birds and $59 afterwards, but the price includes a cocktail and a snack on arrival. Further drinks and food can be bought over the bar, and a DJ will be playing all night.
Entry into the aquarium (usually around $34) is obviously included as well which means you'll get to look at the 10,000-plus creatures, including one of Australia's largest saltwater crocodiles (probably the only time in your life you might be pleased to see a crocodile at a party).
Sea Life Nights run from 6–10pm.
