Is parking included with my aquarium ticket?

No — Stanley Park parking charges apply separately and are not covered by your admission ticket.

What time should I arrive to catch the 4D Theatre?

The 4D Theatre operates on a first come, first served basis, so arriving earlier in the day gives you the best chance of a seat.

Are children under 3 really free?

Yes. Children under 3 years old are admitted free of charge — no ticket needed for them.

What is the last admission time?

Last admission is 1.5 hours before the aquarium closes, so plan to arrive well before the end of the day.

Vancouver Aquarium is located within Stanley Park and has accessible facilities. Contact the aquarium directly if you have specific accessibility requirements.
