Sea Life Orlando Aquarium is giving grown-ups a reason to stay out late this fall. The Icon Park attraction is launching Fins & Flights, an adults-only evening event running September 3–5, 2026, from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. — open to guests 21 and older.
Tickets include five 4-ounce craft beer samples, one poured from each of five participating brands: Ivanhoe Park, Crooked Can, Orange Blossom, Tampa Bay Brewing, and Landshark Vodka Seltzer. Every guest also goes home with a Fins & Flights souvenir tasting glass. Want more? Additional three-sample tickets and full-size cans are each available for $10. A designated-driver ticket covering aquarium admission only is priced at $20.
Between sips, attendees roam the aquarium after hours, mingling among sharks, stingrays, sea turtles, starfish, anemones, and thousands of fish. The experience includes a walk through Sea Life's signature 360-degree ocean tunnel, which puts guests fully inside the aquatic world around them.
Each evening is divided into five entry time slots, and each slot is capped at 100 guests, so this one is likely to sell out quickly. Tickets are $59.99 per person, or $54.99 when purchased online in advance. Reservations and more details are available at visitsealife.com/orlando.
