Opened on May 30, 1930, the 5,000,000 US gal aquarium was for some time the largest indoor facility in the world. Today it holds some 32,000 animals.

BiXi Beer
A little further away from a venue but well worth the adventure! We almost booked this restaurant/brewery for our venue but opted out because of the growing size of our guest list. If you go, check out the upstairs area that has really cool decor and a small outdoor space. Oh and... food is amazing!
