Pop-Up Aquarium Nightclubs

Ripley's Beach Bash was Hosted at the Toronto Aquarium

— April 3, 2017 — Lifestyle
Beach parties might bring to mind the surfer extravaganzas of 1960s LA, but the Ripley's Aquarium of Canada recently brought that historic style into the future with the Ripley's Beach Bash event. The pop-up, which was open for just a single night in Toronto's downtown aquarium, let partiers dance the night away among the fishes and other marine life that are typically relegated to the staid daylight hours.

Aside from dancing in the shadows of sharks and rays, Ripley's Beach Bash also featured other creative perks coupled with admission. For instance, those who attended Beach Bash got free access to the aquarium's surf simulator along with the price of their ticket. Beach Bash also featured a Malibu Rum cash bar with a beach-themed menu, a live DJ, and a photo booth.
