 Penguins & Pajamas: An Overnight Adventure at the California Academy of Sciences 

Grab your coziest pajamas and get ready for an unforgettable overnight adventure at the incredible California Academy of Sciences!  This is a private Girl Scouts of California’s Central Coast event – open only to our guests!

At the Penguins & Pajamas Sleepover, the excitement begins long before bedtime. Once the museum closes to the public, Girl Scouts will get the rare opportunity to explore the Academy after hours, discovering amazing creatures and exhibits throughout the aquarium, planetarium, and rainforest. Along the way, girls will participate in hands-on crafts and engaging STEM activities, sparking curiosity and bringing science to life in a fun and interactive way.

As night falls, the adventure continues with private planetarium experiences, time to explore the rainforest dome, and incredible sights throughout the aquarium—from glowing jellyfish to fascinating sea life. Before lights out, everyone will enjoy a cozy milk and cookies snack, then roll out their sleeping bags in one of the Academy’s exhibit spaces—perhaps even near the famous African penguins!

A separate exhibit sleeping space will be set aside for families or troops that include men or boys, ensuring everyone can comfortably participate in this overnight adventure. Tagalongs are welcome, making this a perfect opportunity for families and troops to share in the fun together.  Please note – all tagalongs must be 4 years of age or older

In the morning, Girl Scouts will enjoy a light breakfast before departing at 8:00 AM. While the animals and exhibits prepare for the day, families can explore the beautiful surrounding area of Golden Gate Park before returning at 10:00 AM to continue the adventure with the included next-day admission to the Academy.

This exclusive Girl Scout overnight experience is packed with discovery, creativity, and unforgettable moments—perfect for curious minds who love animals, science, and a little nighttime magic. Bring your pajamas, sleeping bag, and sense of adventure, and get ready for a sleepover you’ll never forget! 

Cost $125 per person
