Once again the 2026 Sea World Spooky Nights have been launched and tickets are now on sale!

The event runs for 5 nights this year, Saturday 17th, Friday 23rd, Saturday 24th, Friday 30th and Saturday 31st (Halloween)

The biggest change this year is the reduction in event hours now running from 5:30-8:00pm (30 min shorter), at least the price has stayed the same. I wonder if the park will stay 'open' between 4 and 5:30pm?

The Monster Mayhem Laser Lightshow may or may not be back. It doesn't appear on any of the pages (attractions or entertainment), but when you search for it, it appears however, when you view the show information there's nothing (show times) and the the it's display card has no name. Other than that, entertainment offerings seem to be significantly reduced from what I can remember. Rides operating seemed to be fine. Disappointing, albeit its been years since I've gone.

White Christmas is the best VRTP 'free' event imo, and could do with longer hours (30 min longer). These changes here make me concerned about that 'almost perfect' event, and what exactly am I paying for with my 'premium' pass. More for less?

The writing's been on the wall for a while. Village is tightening their belts everywhere they can reasonably get away with. It's something we kinda expected when BGH came on board, but with the recent embezzlement headlines, it's even more understandable.

Does it make it right to be paying a premium for a pass and having a product persistently and repeatedly watered down? absolutely not - but the reality is what it is.
