ABU DHABI: Families with children aged seven to 12 can now embark on a one-of-a-kind overnight adventure at SeaWorld Yas Island, Abu Dhabi.
This January, the event is themed “Sleepover – Winter Wonderland,” bringing a frosty experience to the World’s Largest Indoor Marine Life Theme Park.
The sleepover kicks off at 5:30 PM, allowing participants exclusive after-hours access to the park. Guided by SeaWorld Abu Dhabi’s Zoological Education team, attendees will enjoy thrilling activities such as snowman building and penguin egg crafting. Adding to the excitement is a pizza party dinner followed by a rare chance to get up close with penguins during a special encounter.
Pricing and perks
The experience is priced at Dh650 for annual pass holders and Dh1,300 for regular guests. Each ticket admits one adult and one child and includes dinner, breakfast, and general park admission on the following day.
As part of SeaWorld Abu Dhabi’s “Admission with a Mission” initiative, proceeds from the event will support conservation projects led by the Yas SeaWorld Research & Rescue Center, the region’s leading marine life rescue and rehabilitation facility.
Custom-designed habitats
SeaWorld Abu Dhabi, operated by Miral Experiences, spans eight uniquely themed realms that tell the interconnected “One Ocean” story.
