Calling all island residents and marine life lovers! This year, your Animal Crossing: New Horizons adventures are jumping off the screen and into the real world as SEA LIFE aquariums across Australia and New Zealand to bring an unforgettable, interactive experience to life.

A First in Australia and New Zealand – No Dodo Airlines Required!

For the first time ever, Animal Crossing: New Horizons is teaming up with SEA LIFE ANZ to create a fin-tastic adventure like never before. Get ready to explore vibrant underwater worlds while hanging out with some of your favourite characters from the game.

The fun kicks off at SEA LIFE Sydney Aquarium on April 1st (no, we don’t believe this is an April Fools Joke!) before making waves at SEA LIFE Melbourne Aquarium and SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast Aquarium. Then, the adventure sets sail for New Zealand, landing at SEA LIFE Kelly Tarlton’s Aquarium in Auckland. Whether you’re a fan of SEA LIFE or a dedicated island dweller, this event is sure to make a splash!

What’s in Store?

Get ready to wander through stunning marine habitats, say hi to Isabelle and other familiar faces, and marvel at the incredible creatures that call SEA LIFE home. Keep an eye out for character stamps, uncover fascinating facts about your aquatic neighbours, and help track down Gulliver—he’s washed up again (seriously, someone get him a better map).

Before you head back to your island, don’t forget to stop by the aquarium store to grab exclusive Animal Crossing: New Horizons merch—you know, for those days when you miss your SEA LIFE adventure.

So grab your nets, dust off your best explorer’s outfit, and get ready for an underwater journey that blends the magic of Animal Crossing: New Horizons with the wonders of the deep blue sea. It’s going to be an o-fish-ally amazing time!
