What is the best time to arrive at Shedd?
Arrive early - Shedd is a popular place, and it can get crowded, especially on weekends, in the summer and on holidays. Sunday mornings, when the Aquarium is least crowded, are a great time for family visits.Do exhibits ever sell out?
Yes, some exhibits may sell out early in the day during busy seasons (especially on weekends, summer and holidays). Purchase tickets in advance to make sure you get in and to avoid potential lines. How long should I plan for my visit?
The average visit lasts 2 ½ hours. Look at the Today's Events list to plan your day in advance. Check out our new programs and family activities for the Oceanarium Turns 10 celebration.Are seats reserved for the dolphin presentations?
No. Get to the dolphin presentation early to get the seat of your choice. Seats are not reserved and go quickly on weekends and holidays and in the summer. For a different perspective, try watching the presentation from the underwater viewing gallery.What should I do to avoid getting separated from my group?
Before you start exploring, designate a meeting place (such as the information booth in the foyer) and a time in case your group gets separated. There is no paging system in the building.Can I rent a stroller?
