SUMMER OF WOW
Wednesdays are WOW Wednesdays from July 8th through mid-August, where kids get in FREE. That’s right! One free child admission (ages 3 to 12) with each paying adult.
Visitors choosing Thirsty Thursdays as their visit day can snag a free drink (Soft drinks and Water only – No alcoholic beverages) with their admission. Locals can still take advantage of the Locals Special (2 admissions for $35).
Guests at Imaginarium at Lakewood Center on Fridays can join a FREE Treasure Hunt to search for special objects hidden throughout the venue. The objects are redeemable for even more fun gifts at the Imaginarium gift shop.
Summerween, Trick or Treating in Summer, kicks off on Sunday, July 12th, and then every Sunday through August 16th. Guests are encouraged to come in costumes reminiscent of the “Utopia: Where Fairy Tales Come Alive” theme, or in whatever costume fits their mood and Cosplay adventure. Imaginarium will have special treat stations located throughout the venues where staff will reward guests for their creative self-expression. Bring your own container to hold the treats you collect.
For costume restrictions, please read:
Safety and Prop Restrictions
- No Realistic Weapons: All toy swords, blasters, or scythes must be obviously fake, brightly colored, or made of soft foam.
- Face Visibility: Full-face masks are prohibited for adults and older teens to maintain a secure environment. Half-masks or face paint are preferred alternatives.
- No Tripping Hazards: Costumes, long capes, or gowns must not drag on the ground to prevent tripping.
Content and Modesty Guidelines
- Family-Appropriate Imagery: Costumes must not feature excessive gore, explicit violence, horror themes that are overly traumatizing to toddlers, or offensive language.
- Standard Swimwear Rules: Standard swimwear policies apply. Outfits must provide appropriate coverage.
Practical Advice for Summer Weather
- Avoid Heavy Materials: Steer clear of velvet, thick polyester, and heavy rubber masks to prevent overheating and heat exhaustion under the summer sun.
- Footwear Requirements: Even if wearing a beach-themed costume, shoes (like sandals or sneakers) are still required.
