The Getty, LACMA, The Broad, and dozens more will waive general admission for one day only.

Southern California museums will open their doors free of charge later this month as part of the region’s annual Museums Free-for-All event.

Scheduled for Feb. 22, the one-day initiative offers complimentary general admission at participating institutions across Santa Barbara, Los Angeles, Orange County, and Palm Springs. Organizers noted that while entry is free, regular parking fees may still apply.

Visitors are advised to review each museum’s website for hours, ticketing policies, and reservation requirements, as some locations require advance or timed-entry tickets.
