Shark Reef Aquarium at Mandalay Bay will celebrate its 25th anniversary on June 20, marking a significant milestone in its mission of marine education, conservation, and public engagement. Since opening its doors in 1999, the aquarium has welcomed millions of visitors and become one of Las Vegas’s most popular attractions. Over the past quarter-century, it has introduced guests to the wonders of the ocean, featuring more than 2,000 animals including sharks, rays, sea turtles, and exotic fish.
To mark this anniversary, the aquarium has planned a series of special events and activities that will take place throughout the coming months. The celebration will begin with an anniversary event on June 20, where visitors can expect unique experiences designed to highlight the history and achievements of Shark Reef Aquarium. Guests will also be able to enjoy exclusive offers during the anniversary period, as part of the aquarium’s efforts to thank the community and its supporters for their continued interest over the years.
The team at Shark Reef Aquarium says the anniversary is not only a time to look back at 25 years of success, but also to renew their commitment to marine conservation. Through partnerships with global and local organizations, the aquarium has supported research and protection efforts for marine life. Educational programs at the facility continue to inspire young visitors and raise awareness about the importance of preserving the ocean’s ecosystems.
As Shark Reef Aquarium enters its next chapter, it aims to build on its legacy by offering even more engaging exhibits and conservation initiatives. The anniversary events will serve as a reminder of the vital role the aquarium plays in connecting the public with the natural world, while offering memorable experiences that blend entertainment with education.
