I'm an event planner and have hosted several client events at the aquarium. The staff is amazing to work with. Cassandra, Peter and their team go above and beyond to accommodate my clients' requests no matter how unique. In addition to the stunning aquarium backdrop the views of Philadelphia can't be beat.
