Join us May 4-6 as we celebrate the Force at Mississippi Aquarium!

Get ready to dive into a gala-sea at Mississippi Aquarium for "May the 4th Be With You", "Revenge of the Fifth", and "Return of the Sixth" and experience an intergalactic adventure inspired by the legendary space saga while immersing yourself in the aquatic wonders. For 3-days, we invite you to unleash your inner Jedi, and explore the intriguing world of Darth Gator and the Duck Side of the Force with daily narrated programming on campus. Younglings and Padawans, be prepared to complete an activity sheet and advance to the next stage of your training. And before you blast off into hyperspace, indulge in delicious galactic treats at the Planet Pelican Pointe Cafe, featuring our signature Cheese-3PO Burger, Seven Leia Nachos, and Dark Side Lemonade.

Mark your calendars for the grand finale on Saturday, May 6th - "Return of the Sixth"!

We'll have special guest appearances of over 30 Star Wars costumed characters beginning at 10:00 AM* and mesmerizing underwater lightsaber battles in Aquatic Wonders oceans habitat from 1:30 PM to 3:00 PM. We encourage you to join in on the fun by dressing up as your favorite character from the legendary space saga and become a part of our intergalactic adventure at Mississippi Aquarium! This is an out-of-this-world experience that you don’t want to miss.
