Ticketing Info

The last general admission ticket is sold 45 minutes before the museum's closing time.

Advance ticket holders and SFMOMA members can skip the general admission line. However, once inside the museum, all visitors may still encounter lines to enter popular exhibitions.

From June 3, 2013 through early 2016, SFMOMA's exhibitions and programs will be presented at off-site locations while our building is closed for expansion; please check back for off-site ticketing information.

If you plan on visiting SFMOMA more than once in the year ahead, consider becoming a member. SFMOMA memberships include a year of unlimited free admission (including admission to our off-site exhibitions at partner institutions beginning in June 2013) and additional benefits. Check out our membership levels and benefits page for more information.
