Hours and Admission

Your health and safety are our top priority. In collaboration with an advisory council of scientists, physicians, and public health officials, we have implemented policies and procedures to ensure a safe visit for your family. Learn more about our procedures.

Admission

Advance tickets are encouraged for all visitors—including members, donors, and Access Pass holders. Our daily General Admission ticket includes access to the museum, plus the Riley Children’s Health Sports Legends Experience® (outdoor areas are seasonal).

We suggest buying online below or over the phone with Plan-Ahead Pricing. With Plan-Ahead Pricing, you can save up to 20% by buying your tickets at least 2 weeks in advance. Prices will always cost more the day of your visit, so buy ahead to save! Admission is free for visitors under 2 years old. Youth under age 18 must be accompanied by an adult. The museum also offers free and discounted days throughout the year.
