Summertime and water parks go hand in hand. Even if a sandy beach is just a short drive, intense plunges, bouncing rafts and lazy rivers fill a day with laughter and entertainment. At Aquatica’s AquaGlow event, the sun has set for the day but the night is alive with thrills.
Aquatica Orlando is SeaWorld Orlando’s associated water park. Like SeaWorld, this water park focuses on big thrills. From racing slides to intense drops, guests long to feel that water rush, stomach drop and scream the loudest.
While thrills are a priority, the water park understands that it needs to have quiet moments, too. From its signature lazy river to restaurants and bars, guests can take a break from the action and regroup for the next big moment.
For the summer, Aquatica brought back its signature AquaGlow party. Available on select nights through September 26, the special nighttime event is a great option for couple, friends and families. With a starting price at $49.99/person, the event is definitely worth the price of admission.
Why Book Aquatica’s AquaGlow Versus a Daytime Park Ticket?
Everyone knows that summer in Orlando is hot. While some people bask in the soaring temperatures, others prefer to limit their exposure to UV rays.
Additionally, Florida is known for that mid-afternoon storm that amplifies the humidity and pauses all the outdoor fun. At a water park, that clap of thunder can wipe out a large chunk of fun.
There are many advantages to booking an AquaGlow ticket. First, the later start time brings cooler temperatures. Even before the sun goes down and the night takes over, it feels less sweltering. The water is still refreshing, but everything feels more laid back. Instead of sprinting from slide to slide, the less hot payment allows a more leisurely scroll.
Most importantly, the crowds are fewer at AquaGlow. Just walking around the water park, it feels spacious. There is no fighting for walking space, grabbing a chaise lounge or just sitting at a table.
Since it is a specialty ticketed event, the lines are shorter. No one has to make space in the lazy river or stand for hours waiting for a chance to plunge down a favorite slide. In a matter of hours, you can ride almost everything or ride favorite attractions multiple times.
Lastly, the event includes lots of fun extras. From a foam party and laser show to free fountain beverages, there are many perks during the event.
Given the cost, the ambiance and the extras, AquaGlow is an amazing deal. It is definitely the find of the summer.
Specialty Food and Beverages Shine at AquaGlow
Since many people visit theme parks for the specialty food and beverage options, AquaGlow delights guests with its signature offerings. From vibrantly cocktails to boldly flavored dishes, these food and beverage options keep everyone satisfied.
One highlight on the food menu is the miso bacon cheeseburger. While burgers are standard theme park fare, the condiments on this burger add a heaping amount of excitement.
Topped with sesame slaw, that crunchy, tangy element adds a lightness to the burger. Instead of more wilted lettuce or a sad tomato, the bright, zesty element contrasts the hearty bite.
Additionally, the miso aioli is the real star. It adds that umami note without being heavy. If Aquatica offered this condiment as a side, it would be delicious on fries.
Overall, Aquatica plays into the “bold” elements on this menu. From robust flavors to vibrant colors, every bite and sip makes a big impression.
Aquatica AquaGlow runs on select nights through September 26. Check with the website for exact ticket pricing, extras and other offers.
