PUBLISHED: | UPDATED:

SeaWorld Orlando is introducing several limited-run, limited-capacity experiences to demonstrate its animal-care facilities. It’s part of its Inside Look promotion, which will include multiple Trainer Talks sessions. All are included in regular theme-park admission.

The peeks are scheduled for Nov. 7, 8, 14 and 15.

Inside Look locations will feature the SeaWorld Rescue Center, which deals with life-saving care; the zoological commissary, which handles the diets of the park’s animals; Antarctica: Empire of the Penguin and its residents; a topside view at Shark Encounter; the sea lions and harbor seals of Pacific Point Preserve; and behind-the-scenes activities for Orca Encounter.

Operating hours are listed as 10 a.m.-5 p.m. on event days.

SeaWorld says capacity for the Inside Look events will be “significantly limited,” and that on top of its usual coronavirus-based protocols, which include masks, temperature checks and social distancing. Park reservations continue to be required for entry to SeaWorld Orlando.

The two-weekend event is sandwiched between the end of the park’s Halloween Spooktacular and Craft Beer festivals and the beginning of its Christmas festivities on Nov. 21.
