Access 2 Entertainment Program

Ripley’s Aquarium of Canada is a member of the Access 2 Entertainment program administered by Easter Seals Canada. A support person accompanying a guest with disabilities will be allowed to stay with the guest at all times and will be provided with free admission. See Guest Services upon arrival to receive the complimentary support tickets. As a tip to begin your visit faster, it is recommended that the individual with the Access 2 Entertainment have their ticket bought in advance. This will make for a shorter transaction at the desk.
