| How To Get A Discount To The National Aquarium Baltimore |
Maryland Magic: The Local Love Discount
Crabs with Old Bay seasoning for everyone! If you're a proud Maryland resident, the National Aquarium has your back (and your wallet). Head over there before noon Monday through Friday and snag a sweet discount on admission. It's like a secret handshake with the harbor itself! Just remember, Marylanders, this fishy friend-zone is for weekdays only. Don't show up on Saturday expecting a crab cake discount (although, that would be pretty awesome).
Pro Tip: Feeling fancy? Flash your Maryland ID at some Inner Harbor restaurants after your aquarium adventure and see if they offer any local discounts too. Because, you know, supporting Maryland awesomeness is a way of life.
Military Might: Salute to Savings
Calling all servicemen and women (and veterans too!) The National Aquarium salutes your service...and your love of sharks (or jellyfish, or whatever floats your boat). Show your military ID and snag a special year-round discount on admission. It's a small token of appreciation for the big things you do.
QuickTip: Pause when something clicks.
Additionally, some military bases offer consignment tickets to the aquarium, so check with your local MWR or ITT office. Who knows, you might score an even steeper discount!
Membership Mania: The Fishtastic Frequent Flyer Program
Think of a membership at the National Aquarium as a VIP pass to the underwater world (without the velvet rope, thankfully. Fish don't like velvet). Members get 10% off on dining – perfect for refueling after chasing after those playful otters. Plus, you get to skip the regular admission line and waltz right in like a certified fish aficionado.
But wait, there's more! Members can also purchase discounted guest passes. So, gather your crew, grab your membership card, and prepare for an epic aquatic adventure (and maybe some discounted fish-shaped snacks).
QuickTip: Revisit posts more than once.
