Nintendo UK and Sea Life UK have teamed up to create a live interactive experience allowing visitors to explore the marine life in Animal Crossing: New Horizons.
With a tour guide to lead the way, visitors can tour the Sea Life Islands where they will meet residents like Aurora and Octavian, and discover diverse sea creatures. With a fossil dig revealing the ancestors of the marine life that we love today, you must also search for Gulliver who has washed up on the island’s beaches.
With character stamps to collect, interesting facts to learn about Sea Life’s inhabitants and the chance to meet Tom Nook and Isabelle, fans can purchase Animal Crossing: New Horizons merchandise from the aquarium store at the end of their visit.
“We are thrilled to be offering this one-of-a-kind experience across a number of our SEA LIFE locations,” enthuses Sea Life London Aquarium general manager Catherine Pritchard. “Our guests will be taken on a journey alongside characters from Animal Crossing, all whilst surrounded by the thousands of amazing creatures that we have in our attractions, from Green Sea Turtles to Zebra Sharks in this enriching, fun and unique adventure with family or friends.”
The event will start in Sea Life Manchester on Saturday 8 February before travelling across the United Kingdom to Sea Life Birmingham, Sea Life Brighton, Sea Life London and Sea Life Chessington World of Adventures Resort between the dates listed below:
- Sea Life Manchester: Saturday 8 Feb – Sunday 9 March 2025
