Exploratorium: Free, Discounts, Mixers

Did you know you can get free admission to Exploratorium Science Museum in San Francisco on the First Wednesdays of every month? If you can’t make free first Wednesdays (or don’t want to fight the crowds), you can always get $1 off discount tickets.

EXPLORATORIUM AFTER DARK: The museum also holds nighttime mixers on the first Thursday of every month, called Exploratorium After Dark. You can save $1 on each ticket when you buy online here (for the same general admission tickets) instead of on the museum website or at the door. These are good for general admission during the day and/or during the After Dark events.

“Located in San Francisco’s Palace of Fine Arts, the Exploratorium is a collage of hundreds of science, art, and human perception exhibits offering everything from incredible bubbles to giant bolts of electricity; from behind-the-scenes floor walks to panel discussions.”

DEAL 1: Exploratorium offers FREE admission on the first Wednesday of each month.

DEAL 3: Get Exploratorium discount tickets for $14 including fees (reg $15). That’s $1 off tickets anytime from our online reservation partner. (Also see daytime discounts for child/youth/students/seniors.)

AFTER DARK: Deal 3 ($1 off) tickets are also valid for Exploratorium After Dark, first Thursdays, 6–10pm. You can visit during the day if you like, and then return for the evening event with the same ticket. Or just go for Exploratorium After Dark. Adults (18+) only.
