February is San Diego Museum Month 2025

San Diego Museum Month Starts Saturday

 

February is American Heart Month. But it’s also San Diego Museum Month! And there are terrific museum benefits to take advantage of throughout February.

 

San Diego Museum Month (website) is a special opportunity! There are discounts at more than 70 museums, historic sites, aquariums and similar venues throughout San Diego until February 28th. See the website for the complete list of museums and other venues and any restrictions.

 

It’s easy to participate in San Diego Museum Month. All you have to do is pick up a discount pass at one of the more than 80 San Diego Libraries (city and county libraries). The discount is 50% off the cost of regular admission for up to 4 people. You might find some other special offers, too.

 

Be aware that certain special programs and exhibits may have other admission fees. Additionally, some exhibits may not qualify for a discount. It’s wise to check with the venue first regarding any limitations that may exist.

 

You have until February 28th to use the passes. Discount passes may be used more than once, although the number of visits to a particular museum may be restricted. There is no cost for discount passes and the rewards could be substantial.

 

All participating museums and historic sites are members of the San Diego Museum Council. San Diego Museum Month is a wonderful opportunity to enjoy your favorites, and perhaps explore museums you haven’t yet visited.

Jeff Dowler, CRS - I like how different your museums are in San Diego. I'm guessing the music museum and especially the surfboard museums are very popular.

Hi Patricia Feager 

The Surf Museum was lots of fun to visit. We have been to the Museum of Making Music multiple times - it's a great place for anyone who appreciates music. Kids seems to enjoy all the interactive exhibits.

I don't generally visit museums, but I have been impressed pretty much every time I have stepped inside of one, haha.

It would be hard to not be impressed, depending on the museum, Brian England

The Smithsonian Museum in DC may be the most impressive museum I have ever visited...it's so large you cannot see everything in one visit.

Enjoy your weekend!

Good morning Jeff. With the cost of museum passes these days, a month of discounts is a treasure which should be taken advantage of. Enjoy your day.

Museum Month is a BIG deal and a terrific opportunity even for visiting just a few places. You are right about the costs, at least at some museums Wayne Martin 

Thanks!

Hi Jeff... such a great initiative to get people interested in museums. Now I need to see if we have something like this in my area. I seem to remember something, but I don't remember it being promoted very much.

If there is something similar - perhaps a week and not a month - I hope you will share it, Nina Hollander, Broker 

Enjoy your weekend!

Jeff, 70 museums, historic sites, aquariums and similar venues throughout San Diego is a lot of venues to visit throughout the month.

Hi George Souto 

Yes, there are a lot of options for San Diego Museum Month and it would probably be impossible to visit them all - that's more than 2 per day!

Have a great weekend!

Good evening jeff,

I knew February is American Heart Month. I didn't know February is San Diego Museum Month! I'll bet many people take advantage of the discounts.

I believe it's very popular Dorie Dillard Austin TX and the added a number of participating museums and other venues over last year. It's a great deal I think.

HI Jeff, What a worthwhile initiative to introduce your community to your museums.  Like going to the library, it's a good habit to get into!!

I think it's a great idea, too, and a terrific cost-effective way to encourage people to visit during February and save some money.

Jeff, what a wonderful way to enjoy the month of February.  Even though your weather is a bit warmer than here in PA, I bet a lot of locals there consider it a down time because of cooler weather.  Have fun!

Feb 05, 2025 01:05 PM
Jeff Dowler, CRS

It IS a wonderful opportunity Gloria Todor  Yes, warmer than many parts of the country but it is our winter - high 50s, maybe low 60 daytime in the low 40s at night...and no snow except in the mountains!

Jeff, sounds like fun for those museums goers, but I usually don't.   Going thru Cleveland though, think I will go to the Music Hall of Fame.

Hi Joan Cox 

 I think it's a pretty popular event and there are certainly lots of options.

I would think the Music Hall of Fame would be lots of fun. If you go I hope you will write about it and share some photos!
