Ready for the most epic sleepover ever? This summer, families are invited to unroll their sleeping bags at the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum for three Operation Slumber overnight programs. Forget the basic popcorn-and-movie night—this slumber party is held at one of NYC's iconic family attractions and includes a tour of the Space Shuttle Pavilion, an evening stroll on the flight deck by flashlight and a virtual flight simulation.
Families are fed dinner, snacks and a Continental breakfast aboard the massive ship so everyone is fueld up for fun activities like a visit to the pop-up planetarium and crafts where guests make their own planets and space aliens. When it's time to hit the hay, they'll crash on cots set up between the helicopters and jet planes on the Hangar Deck. Grab a goody bag on your way out with a T-shirt and a pass inside, so you can come back and explore one of our favorite NYC museums for kids during daylight hours. Space is limited, so call 646-381-5010 or email groupsales@intrepidmuseum.org to reserve your spot.
Operation Slumber programs will be held on July 25, July 31 and August 8 from 6pm–8am. $120 per person. Ages 6 to 17.
