In honor of Military Appreciation Month, SeaWorld Parks is offering a free one-day admission for U.S. military veterans and up to three accompanying guests.

Active-duty military and their guests can still select a complimentary day of admission all throughout the year.

Through the Waves of Honor Program, SeaWorld has provided complimentary park access to members of the U.S. military for over 20 years.

Marc Swanson, CEO of United Parks & Resorts said in a statement, "We are proud to honor active-duty military, veterans and their families with a complimentary visit to one of our parks. We are incredibly grateful to all members of our military for their commitment and dedication to serving our country.”

He added, “The Waves of Honor program extends a small token of our appreciation to those who are serving or who have served. We look forward to welcoming military service members, veterans and their families for a fun-filled day in one of our parks."

The Waves of Honor offer is also open to any activated U.S. military, drilling reservist or National Guardsman. Registration is currently available through May 11, 2025, and tickets must be redeemed by July 6. SeaWorld San Diego guests must visit the park by May 26, 2025.

A valid military ID is required for all visits and dependents over the age of 10 must also provide ID.
