Please note: General admission ticket sales will be limited on Sunday, May 5th as we welcome Boston Public Schools students and their families for BPS Sundays. We strongly recommend booking tickets in advance to guarantee entry. A limited number of tickets will be available onsite for walk-up purchases when we open at 9:00. Due to high demand on BPS Sundays, we expect to reach our building capacity in the afternoon, at which point we will no longer have tickets available.
The New England Aquarium is committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion plus, ensuring how we work together to deliver on our mission is inclusive of a broad range of perspectives. We are also dedicated to achieving meaningful impact and being a model in the community by understanding and engaging in transformational advocacy around issues of inequity.
