In honor of Patriot Day, the Newport Aquarium will offer free admission to first responders Sept. 11 – 13, during Fire & Safety Weekend.  Police officers, firefighters, EMTs, state troopers, correction officers, 911 dispatchers and other law enforcement and emergency response professionals will be able to visit the Aquarium for free — just present your credentials, along with a valid government-issued photo ID, at the ticket window.

During Fire & Safety Weekend, family members and friends who accompany police, firefighters and first responders at the ticket window will receive $3 off adult and $2 off child (ages 2 – 12) admission.  (Must be present at the time the first responder orders his or her ticket in order to receive the discount.)
