Life of Water
Slated to open in 2026, Life of Water is Discovery World’s largest exhibit project since 2018. Housed within 2,700 square feet, Life of Water is enriched by educational programs featuring interactive exhibits, hands-on labs and experiences, and community outreach initiatives to expand access to freshwater education.
New Experiences in the Caribbean Tunnel Exhibit
Discovery World’s iconic Caribbean Tunnel Exhibit is a breathtaking walk-through reef experience that brings the tropics to Milwaukee. The experience is undergoing a major renovation to include a brand-new Dome Lookout for an immersive new perspective, vibrant new coral and rock structures, and an expanded tank capacity by over 2,700 gallons. These updates are all part of a carefully planned effort to keep this beloved exhibit stunning, educational, and safe for our aquatic residents.
