Each year that you are a member, you receive Omni, Planetarium, and Exhibit Halls guest passes. Membership passes expire one year from date of purchase and must be used prior to expiration. Each pass may be redeemed for one free ticket to the specified venue. Exhibit Halls passes can be used to admit visitors above the number of admissions your membership allows.
Electronic passes and paper passes with a gift code can be used when making a reservation online, over the phone, or in person. All passes, except paper exhibit hall passes, must be exchanged for tickets, which may be picked up at the museum, printed at home, or delivered directly to your phone. Paper exhibit hall passes may be used directly at the lobby entrance.
Legacy paper passes, which are generally blue, ivory, or green, can be redeemed in person, or used when members make reservations by phone. Unfortunately, they cannot be redeemed online. All passes for the Omni and Planetarium must be exchanged for tickets at the box office. Exhibit hall passes may be used directly at the lobby entrance. If you make a reservation on the phone using paper passes, be sure to bring both the passes and the confirmation number to the box office to pick-up your tickets.
