San Diego Museum Council: Kids Free In October

Organized by the San Diego Museum Council (SDMC), Kids Free in October is an opportunity for thousands of families to enjoy museum experiences this October with free admission for kids 12 and under at 40 arts, cultural and science museums in San Diego County.

From learning about dinosaurs and military heroes to astronauts and artists, kids get to explore cultural destinations and attractions across the county. You may be surprised to learn how many museums are located across the San Diego region—from the California Surf Museum in Oceanside down to the Living Coast Discovery Center in Chula Vista.

Free admission is available for up to two kids for every adult ticket purchase. To participate, download the Kids Free in October voucher. Simply present the voucher at the participating museum’s admissions desk. A full directory of participating venues can be found on the San Diego Museum Council’s website.

Kids Free in October is presented in partnership with the San Diego Tourism Authority’s Kids Free campaign. During the entire month of October, families can enjoy special deals at nearly 150 area hotels, restaurants, attractions, museums and transportation companies.
