Ocean Pavilion

Donor and Member Early Access:

Due to high demand, Ocean Pavilion preview days for Seattle Aquarium members on August 25 and 26 have reached capacity. We are no longer taking reservations for these events.

The good news is your Aquarium membership gives you unlimited, free access to our entire campus—including the Ocean Pavilion once it opens on August 29.

We expect this summer and fall to be busy, so don’t wait. Reserve your tickets through the member portal today!

Thank you for understanding.
