Adventure Aquarium has partnered with KultureCity to improve our ability to assist and accommodate guests with sensory needs. Our objective is to provide an inclusive and seamless experience for all guests for all events, including those with sensory needs. We strive to raise awareness of the needs and challenges faced by individuals with sensory processing disorders by supplying our Team Members with continuous training and offering our guests the resources and accommodations below.
Sensory Bags
Sensory bags are available to check out at no cost on a first-come, first-served basis at the Information Desk in the Main Lobby (Lower Level). Sensory bags include noise-canceling headphones (provided by Puro Sound Labs), fidget tools, and verbal cue cards.
Weighted Lap Pad
A weighted lap pad is available to check out at no cost on a first-come, first-served basis at the Information Desk in the Main Lobby (Lower Level)
Headphone Zones
Signage is posted around the Aquarium to alert guests to louder areas of “Headphone Zones” to remind them to utilize their noise-canceling headphones in those areas if needed.
Designated Quiet Area
Adventure Aquarium’s multi-use Nursing and Family Room can be used as a private, quiet space for guests experiencing sensory overload. If you require a bigger space for some quiet, alert an Adventure Aquarium team member, and they can take you to one of our private, behind-the-scenes areas.

Service animals are permitted at Adventure Aquarium and are defined as dogs or miniature horses individually trained to do work or perform tasks for people with disabilities. Service animals must be harnessed, leashed, or tethered unless these devices interfere with the service animal’s work or the individual’s disability prevents the use of these devices. In this case, the individual must maintain control of the animal through voice, signal, or other adequate controls.
For the health and safety of your animal and ours, services animals are restricted from the following areas:
Adventure Aquarium does not offer a relief area for service animals. If you need to leave the building and return, please be sure to have your hand stamped at the Information Desk.
