Journey Around the World
Our festival is BACK! Join us as we celebrate 15 amazing years of Eco Adventure with a global Earth Day celebration honoring ALL the cultures in our planet to celebrate our Mother Earth —from every corner of the world.
Travel the globe in one exciting day as families explore cultures, wildlife, and conservation efforts from around the world. Meet conservation and environmental organizations, connect with local groups and Scouts, and visit vendors inspired by global traditions and sustainability.
Enjoy live performances from around the world and interactive experiences throughout the festival, including animal shows, a magic show, a Polynesian dancer, a Mariachi band, fossil digs, and hands-on activities that highlight Earth’s incredible biodiversity. Kids can “travel” with their own passports from continent to continent and experience exhibitors, and vendors with activities, green screen pictures, face painting, pony rides, a petting zoo and animals from different regions of the planet.
With delicious food from Benta Box and others, this nonstop family fun, Earth Day Extravaganza is your passport to celebrating our planet, protecting its future, and honoring 15 years of Eco Adventures’ impact.

New Year's Eve at Noon Adventure!
Dec 31st
11:00-12:30 pm $25 per person (2 and over)
Grab your hat and whip—your adventure starts NOW! Indi Anna Jones and the Temple of Light
You’re teaming up with Indi Ana Jones on a globe-spanning mission to recover a mysterious ancient artifact. Your journey will rocket you through tangled jungles, torch-lit caves, and daring challenges designed to keep treasure hunters out. Watch your step—those booby traps are sneaky!
Along the way, expect to meet wild creatures of every size, shape, and number of legs. Some are cute… some are creepy… and some have very sharp teeth. But with courage and quick thinking, you and Indy can handle anything and complete his quest. Well… almost anything. Just hope Indy doesn’t have to face the one thing he fears most— SNAKES!
This fully interactive adventure program is designed for explorers of all ages and will test your bravery, creativity, and sense of adventure. Only the boldest will make it out with the Artifact!
*Green Screen is available for $10 per picture, Face Painting $8
Creatures of the Night
Oct 25th 5:00-6:00 pm $20 per person (ages 3 and over)
Are you a night owl? If so this family program is perfect for you! See who’s lurking in the dark? Howling at the moon? Soaring through the night? Slithering through the garden? It’s nighttime in the jungle! Encounter a “lighting and thunderstorm” and see the Northern Lights as our nocturnal party guests will head into the foggy darkness to meet some of our nocturnal creatures up close! We will bring out our “Fear factor” challenge and meet some glowing scorpions, and creepy tarantulas, and maybe try edible bugs! Meet our new Screech owls and learn how they find their prey in the darkness, watch hedgehogs hunt for worms at night, and eyeshine for alligators! The sunset will be setting at Eco Adventures… with our Creatures of the night!
*Green Screen is available after the program for $10 per picture.
*Recommended for ages 5+
