FORT FISHER, NC (WWAY) — The North Carolina Aquariums will soon close for an entire week to allow for improvement work.

The closure is planned for January 29th through February 2nd. Each site has some priority tasks on the list, including large, multi-day projects which the teams can tackle only while the Aquariums are closed, according to a press release.

“The compassion and unwavering commitment of the North Carolina Aquariums team to the animals and the community is unmatched,” NC Aquariums acting director Michael P. Remige said. “It’s important for us to take this time to begin 2024 with momentum and renewed focus on animal well-being and our conservation mission.”

The Aquariums will reopen February 3rd at 9:00 a.m. Advance tickets are required to visit the Aquariums.
