Join us on May 11, 2024 to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Dalhousie University's Aquatron – Canada’s largest ocean research facility.

Programming and activities will meet the interests of every ocean enthusiast, including:

  • Touch tanks
  • Face painting
  • Ocean glider demos
  • Tours

You will meet some of Dalhousie’s world-leading ocean researchers and learn about the ground-breaking work they do to understand this vast aquatic environment and conserve the creatures that call it home.

Designed to engage and excite the young and young-at-heart, you will leave with a new appreciation of the ocean and the researchers who have made it the focus of their life’s work.
