The National Sea Life Centre Birmingham is gearing up for its big 20th birthday bash!

Tomorrow is an iconic day for The National Sea Life Centre Birmingham, as it marks its 20th anniversary, and to celebrate, there are some super cool prizes up for grabs.

To mark the occasion the attraction is giving the first 100 people who visit Tomorrow (5th July) the 1996 entry price of £5.95 with a limited edition golden anniversary pop badge, and anyone who was born on 5th July 1996 can visit for FREE. Of course the attraction has not left the fish out of the celebrations, as they will enjoy some delicious slices of birthday cake and there’ll also be photo boards showing remarkable moments in the attractions history.

The National Sea Life Centre Birmingham's General Manager, Amy Langham, said: “It’s incredible to have reached such a huge milestone and it is an honour to be part of such a dedicated, hardworking team. We’re now home to over 2,000 sea creatures from all over the world’s oceans and we continue to go from strength to strength each year.

“We knew we would have to up the ante to celebrate this fantastic accolade and that is exactly what we have done, with the arrival of two brand new attractions. One being the 360 degree ocean tunnel, which is now completely transparent throughout and allows our guests to look into the world’s oceans. The other is Clownfish Kingdom, which features an array of interactive tanks so visitors can get close to some incredible underwater species like Clownfish and Blue Tangs.”

The brand new Behind the Scenes Tours have also recently been launched at The National Sea Life Centre Birmingham. This special package can make the perfect addition to any day out and for just £3.50 per person*, guests will be able to journey deep behind the scenes with one of the expert aquarists to discover how the attraction cares for the thousands of marine and fresh-water creatures that live there.
