To commemorate Memorial Day weekend and recognize our nation’s heroes, active and retired military members will receive free waterpark general admission from Saturday, May 25 to Monday, May 27 by presenting a valid military ID.

Memorial Day Weekend is the unofficial start to the summer at Daytona Lagoon, and the park is ready to greet all its guests, just receiving the June Beautification Award from the City of Daytona Beach’s Beautification/Tree Advisory Board.
