SeaWorld San Diego is launching a new and exciting lineup of concerts and special events in 2019. Debuting in May will be the electrifying Latin music festival, Viva La Música. This multi-weekend celebration of Hispanic heritage, complete with live concerts by today’s hottest acts and delicious Latin cuisine, will pay tribute to this vibrant culture. The Nautilus Amphitheater will be remodeled to accommodate this concert festival as well as other new special-engagement events and performances throughout the year.

These new experiences, along with the opening of the dueling roller coaster Tidal Twister this May, are excellent reasons to visit SeaWorld again and again. Preparation for Viva La Música and other future events at Nautilus Amphitheater will begin on March 1. Park guests can enjoy the Pets Rule! show through Feb. 28. We want to thank and celebrate the trainers and animals of the Pets Rule! show who have made us laugh and smile these past 17 years.

Building off the success of our recent Inside Look event, we are trying out similar experiences through February 1 as part of our regular daily operations. We’re expanding this concept so that every guest, every day has the opportunity to learn more about who we are and what we stand for.

“Animal Morning Moments” will be happening 10 - 11 a.m. at Underwater Orca Viewing, Otter Outlook, Dolphin Point and Explorer’s Reef. The rest of our attractions, exhibits and shows will open once these sessions are wrapped up. Come check it out!
