A few days ago, The Florida Aquarium announced a slew of new events and installations to celebrate its 25th anniversary. In conjunction with the upcoming leap year, the aquarium is hosting its first-ever adult slumber party on Feb. 29—aptly named “Leap with the Fishes.”

Although there are few details on this 21-and-up sleepover itself, the Florida Aquarium website states that you’ll “party all night long with a lineup of fun activities.”  Some activities during the children’s “Sleep with the Fishies” slumber party are the sea turtle rescue, a behind the scenes tour and a dive show—but the programs for “Leap with the Fishes” might be more daring than that. 

Tickets start at $190 for Aquarium members and $200 for non-members, and can be purchased at flaquarium.org. Buy wisely, because there are no returns, refunds or cancellations.
