What could make a night of dancing and drag queens better? How about adding in some sharks?
That may seem random, but it’s not. No, I am actually referring to the upcoming Pride Night at Ripley’s Aquarium Canada in Toronto!
Pride Toronto and Ripley’s Canada are bringing you a night to remember. It is appropriately named “Night at the Aqueerium!”
It takes place on a Friday night, on June 17th, 2022. It lasts from 8:00 PM to 12:00 AM.
This is an evening just for us adults. It is a 19 years old and older event. You can sip cocktails and mingle with other guests.
