July 4th BBQ at the Aquarium

Pat Murkland, Neighbor

Celebrate Independence Day with the red, white, and blue fish at the Aquarium of the Pacific.

Families will be able to witness the ambiance of the Aquarium at night and get a fish-eye view of the City of Long Beach fireworks display. Wave the flag, watch the fireworks, and spark up some BBQ with the Aquarium of the Pacific. Join the Aquarium on July 4th for some fresh grilled BBQ. Then take a trip inside to see the wonders of the sea. Make it a day of fun for you and the whole family.

BBQ hours are from 6:00 - 8:00 p.m., but the Aquarium is open from 9:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m., with discounted admission starting at 5:00 p.m. $37 per adult (12+) and $29 per child (member discounts available).
