Vancouver Aquarium
Sensory Friendly Hours
The Vancouver Aquarium offers sensory-friendly hours from 9:30 am to 12 pm on specific days – typically the third Sunday of each month. During these hours, lights and audio levels are reduced throughout the aquarium. The aquarium also offers comfort kits for use during a visit, which contain noise-blocking ear protectors, fidget toys, instructive cue cards and a photographic activity guide. Disabled guests who purchase a full-price ticket can have a personal care attendant accompany them for free.
