Ocean Fest: The Noisy Ocean!

This summer, from 17 May till 30 June, S.E.A. Aquarium’s Ocean Fest returns with the theme of “The Noisy Ocean”. Held in celebration of World Oceans Day on 8 June, this festival aims to raise awareness on ocean soundscapes and the negative impacts of sound pollution through immersive installations, musical performances, project showcases and more.

In the “Celebration of Sound” which will be held in front of the iconic Open Ocean Habitat, guests can participate in a brand-new percussion showcase with an ensemble of upcycled materials turned into musical instruments, live-sized dancing puppets and an original score espousing the importance of the 3Rs: reduce, reuse and recycle.

There are also interactive audio-visual exhibits where young learners can discover the natural rhapsody of sounds in the ocean through four installations that illustrate the types of sounds and its importance to the ocean and marine ecosystem, as well as the effects of sound pollution on marine biodiversity.

Discover the unique characteristics of the aquarium’s largest and most iconic species – three manta rays – and how to protect these animals in an all-new talk held daily at 1pm at the Open Ocean Habitat. Also, at 12.30pm and 3.00pm daily, guests can also meet S.E.A. Aquarium’s adorable line-up of manta ray and shark mascots.
