Description

SharkCon is an event that brings those who love the ocean together for a weekend of education and the fun of a Comic Con. SharkCon has something for everyone who loves the ocean.

Event Details

Tickets can be purchased for $19.99 for a single day adult pass, $39.98 for a two-day adult pass, $4.99 for a one-day child pass or $9.98 for a two-day child pass. Proceeds will benefit three main recipients: The Florida Aquarium rehabilitation programs, Mote Marine Laboratory’s shark research and Shark Angel’s Fin Free and Kids and Sharks projects.

The event will be held at the Florida Fair Grounds, Tampa. It will be held Saturday July 11th, 2015 from 9am-6pm & Sunday July 12th, 2015 from 10am-5pm, 2014. The idea behind Shark-Con is to bring all types and backgrounds of people (researchers, conservationists, boaters, scuba divers) together to share ideas, have a fun experience, learn, and come together to help the ocean. Sometimes people with different interests may disagree about how to approach the ocean and its needs, however, all of these people love the oceans and should learn to work together to make a difference.

We look forward to entertaining, educating, and raising money for Shark / Ocean conservation. We promise everyone/group that is involved with Shark-Con will benefit from their participation. We hope this becomes an annual event where these various groups of people continue meet, to discuss and learn from each other while educating the public.
