I bought the the tickets online from tigets for Sunday October 5, 3025. I showed up to the exploratorium’s I was told it was closed for a private event. I reached out and asked for a refund…I was supposed to get an email. I have still to hear from tigets.

Exploratorium is amazing. We took our grandsons ages 13 and 14 and they loved it. We were there for 4 hours and wish we could have stayed longer. It’s a must for San Francisco

Aquarium of the Bay

Aquarium of the Bay is located at San Francisco's popular PIER 39. Its focus, as the name suggests, is local aquatic animals from the San Francisco Bay (and nearby waterways). There are three main exhibit areas, each with a specific point of focus. The most thrilling is the underwater tunnel, though the touch pools and naturalist talks also help make this an exciting and interactive way to get to know the bay.

San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (SFMOMA)

The Snøhetta expansion (completed in 2016) doubled the amount of exhibition space at the SFMOMA. The seven-story structure also expanded the gallery areas and outdoor public spaces, giving a big injection of destination architecture to San Francisco's South of Market area. The SFMOMA's permanent collection is a whopping 33,000 works, and there are always temporary exhibitions as well. When in San Francisco's SoMa make time for the SFMOMA.
