The romantic atmosphere
of a nighttime aquarium

The Port of Nagoya Public Aquarium holds its annual Summer Night Aquarium from Saturday, July 20 to Sunday, September 1! The South Building's lights are dimmed as low as they can go after 5:00 pm for a heart-thumping romantic aura. the contrast of light and shadow turns the whole aquarium into a veritable blue world. And if you enter after 5:00 pm, you'll receive a nearly 20% discount off the regular admission fee.

There are plenty of things that only the Night Aquarium offers, such as the creatures' nocturnal behavior and the relaxing sight of penguins as they slumber. The ever popular evening dolphin performance too is a must-see.

Come and enjoy the aquarium at night—a completely different experience from the regular daytime aquarium!

Nighttime Dolphin Performance
Location: Stadium, 3rd floor of the North Building
Uniquely different from the afternoon performance, experience a magical nighttime dolphin performance from the romantically lit stands.

Orca Training
Location: Stadium, 3rd floor of the North Building
As part of the training, orcas demonstrate powerful jumps and come up to the shallows of the pool. Experience the impressive orca—the king of the ocean—from close range.

Tornado of Sardines
Location: Large Kuroshio Tank, 2nd floor of the South Building
A tornado of sardines whoosh around with silver scales glimmering as the ever-moving school whirls around the tank.

Romantic Aquarium
Location: "Marine Life Around Japan" exhibit, 2nd floor of the South Building–"Tropical Marine Life" exhibit, 1st & 2nd floor of the South Building
After 5:00 pm, the South Building's lights are dimmed as low as they'll go, creating a blue world which plays with the contrast between light and shadow. Come enjoy the romantic Night Aquarium!
