Free days at Chicago museums and attractions: When and where to go

With cold temperatures blanketing the city, it’s the perfect time to head inside and visit area museums and attractions as many are offering multiple free admission days. For those who want to brave the cold, zoos and gardens offer free days, too.

Also throughout the year, many institutions have free admission for the military, first responders, students, teachers and children. Some also take part in Museums for All, a program that offers free or reduced admission to those receiving food assistance (SNAP benefits). Check websites for further information on these.

And for year-round free admission consider becoming a member of your favorite museum, zoo or garden.
