Penguins and Pajamas Sleepover at Cal Academy
- see all dates
Except March 28, 2025; April 11, 2025; April 25, 2025.
Also on February 15, 2025; March 8, 2025; April 12, 2025; May 2, 2025.
A fun experience for young explorers, this family-friendly overnight stay lets kids and adults sleep at the Cal Academy and find out what 40,000 live animals get to do after hours. Special programs, late-night planetarium shows, and rainforest access until 8 p.m. complete the evening.
After an evening snack of milk and cookies, families roll out their sleeping bags and snooze in one of the exhibits like the flooded forest tunnel or the Phillippine Coral Reef. In the morning, it's breakfast at the Cafe, and then continue to explore with free admission for the day!
All guests must be at least 5 years old and have an accompanying adult as a chaperone for the evening.
Note that April 4th and June 14th are reserved for Girl Scouts of NorCal and their families.
