Founded in 1969, the New England Aquarium is a global leader in ocean exploration and marine conservation. Hosting your event with us helps support the Aquarium’s non-profit mission and gives guests the opportunity to dine privately among penguins, sharks and sea turtles, or beside Boston’s scenic skyline on the Harbor View Terrace. The Aquarium is able to accommodate events with up to 1,500 guests during the warmer months by adding additional tenting on our front plaza (as pictured). Photo: David Fox
