It’s that time of year again for Smithsonian Magazine’s Museum Day Live! on Saturday, September 27.

This is a great opportunity for your family to get in free to participating venues with a ticket. 

My family and I have attended Museum Day Live! several times in the past.  The crowds can be a bit large, but it is worth it because you get free admission into some of the normally more expensive museums in Southern California.

The Museum Day Live! Ticket provides free admission for two people.  Since I have a family of four, my husband typically registers for one ticket and I register for another one (two tickets will get in four people).  But you need to have separate email addresses to do this.

As a bonus for participating in this year’s Museum Day Live!, you will also receive a free digital edition of Smithsonian Magazine when registering.

Los Angeles Area
