HAD A BLAST!!! Comprised of interactive installations, photo opps, digital art, and inflatable art.. you will find the experience to b one that is fun, entertaining, and definitely memorable. We came midweek, and I think that was a great choice as we avoided the lines, long waits, and the other things that come with big crowds. Even with no lines it took us about an hour and a twenty minutes to get through everything, so there is definitely a lot to do.. PROTIP: If you can find street parking, it's highly recommended because the dedicated parking lot is always expensive and the rate goes up during the busier days in wynwood read more

Balloon Museum - Art Museums Near Me - Miami, Florida

Things to know: parking is $20 and they hassle you like they're the ones getting paid, the concession is at the end of the museum right by the exit & there is a food truck outside accessible before entry. If you take your time you can be in there for about two hours. The exhibitions are immersive, the ball pit would've been better if people know how to behave and listened to the staff. I enjoyed this museum and wish they would've had the opportunity for a Photo Booth. read more

Balloon Museum is located in Wynwood at the Mana Convention Center. It's a temporary pop-up art installation that started New York and Atlanta and now Miami. Before it came into town, there was a waitlist that you could sign up for to get 50% off tickets. Official opening day was on June 22nd and they're here until October 6th. I remember seeing photos from the New York pop-up and it looked super cool. There is this ridiculous ball pit room that was massive and it just looked so cool. I knew we had to check this out. When you buy tickets, you're buying for a certain timeslot on a certain date. Tickets range from adult, children, family, package, and Florida residents. Tickets are non-refundable but you can purchase insurance on the tickets in case something happens and you can't make your date/time. Insurance is only $10 and worth it for peace of mind. Otherwise, if you don't use your tickets, you can use it for a different date/time. Inquire within. There are so many different art installation rooms and so many cool photo opportunities. Everything is INSTAGRAMMABLE!!! It's so hard to pick a favorite room!. My tips include Swing, Canopy, ADA, Hyperstellar and Perpetual Ballet. My most favorite room is hands down Hyperstellar which is the ball pit room. You'll see once you walk in there. The Balloon Museum is absolutely worth it and has so many fun ways to create memories and take cool photos/videos. It's a bonus that we got a discount on the tickets We could spend all day here. They estimate about 1.5 hours to see everything, we took our time, had fun and took 2.5 hours. It can get very crowded so be ready. At the end of the museum, they have about 12 different cubicles for photo opps. Like more photo opps if you can believe that. It's quite smart actually. There is also a Balloon Shop and some concessions at the Balloon Bar. Very cool and interactive museum. Highly recommended. It was pretty crowded for the second day of opening so I'm sure the remainder of the time that it's here, it'll be pretty packed. Get your tickets while you can! read more

I wish Yelp could provide 1/2 ratings, I give this a 4.5 stars! This is an interactive museum with over 15 different inflatable artworks to photograph and play with located at the Mana in Wynwood. I absolutely loved it! It is family friendly so bear that in mind Here's what you should know! -Tickets: $44 per Adult, $33 per Child, $41 for FL Residents & Students on Weekends! Prices are cheaper during the weekdays! - Parking also varies during the time of the week for 8 hours sessions on-site for $40 , so take advantage of street parking! - A 3rd of your visit will have your shoes covered to keep the floors clean, but it is slippery so be careful! - You can stand up in the ball pit so it's not super deep! I recommend getting in the pit first safely before falling back lol! - Tickets are on sale until October with room for extension! read more

Always wanted to go to one and so glad I did. I had an awesome time. Don't like driving to Miami much but trips like these are worth it. It's a little pricey but hey it's Miami. But so worth it. Parking is expensive so you can park outside the warehouse. It's nice how they set the times so the area is not overcrowded and you can actually enjoy the displays and shows. A must visit at least once. A must visit when in the local area.... read more

Everything! Amazing is the word for the place. Clearly from my face you can see the excitement and inner child being released lol. I would go back to this place on repeat, in slow motion, just WOW! Who knew art could take form in air, crafted by talented workmanship to create such an immersive, engaging and fun atmosphere. When I tell you I'm so happy I made it to check this out! Balloon museum, you came, you saw, and ate, leaving no crumbs. You will be missed. read more

Absolutely loved the museum! Immersive Great for pictures Family friendly They have a gift shop Ballon making shop Cotton candy and some quick food The only reason it doesnt have 5 stars is because it was packed with kids (not that this is bad BUT I think there should be designated kid slots so they can play without having adults interfering and vice versus) we had a little kid hit the white ball so hard it literally broke my cousins inner lip. Make sure u by tickets ahead and prking is pricey so maybe park in the street Wear comfy clothes and no skirts or heels if u want to get in the ball pit because u will be uncomfortable read more

Not sure if this was meant to be as a playground as well as a whimsical museum. I'm all for kids enjoying art but not at the expense of the pieces or enjoyment of those around them. Went on a Saturday so of course it was a little over crowded. I suggest buying a ticket online to get a designated time slot and even then it was still packed at the time we went. Waited in line for about 30 mins to take a picture with a balloon tree. Ball pit room was the best part. Tickets are WAY TO EXPENSIVE, so try to go throughout the week to save a few extra dollars. Do not pay for parking in the lot, search for some outside parking and walk. Half the installations make for great pictures and there's about 12 cubicles at the end with each a different theme for that extra cute IG picture. Going once was enough for me! read more

I had great hopes for this place. Great art pieces. However, could not be enjoyed to the over abundance of kids. Way too many kids destroying art. Screaming. Parents complaining of over stimulation for the kids. One kid got poked in the eye on the big rubber gall due to parents not supervising. Kids were destroying art work. A pregnant lady couldn't get out of the black ball pool, had to get her out. It's a great exhibit, but a huge liability with the kids that were there. I was trying to read each piece of art represented, but could not appreciate due to the over abundance of kids and destruction of art, along with parents not supervising and thinking it was Chuck E Cheese. Cheapening the experience. Not worth the $44.00 a ticket, $26.00 parking . read more

So, I finally went to this trending experience here in Miami. I have to say it is super nice and a great plan to spend time with the family, but it is the most disorganized experience I have ever had. I admit I went on a weekend, which may be the busiest time, but kids were destroying the place, and there was no one around taking care of it. There were some interactive experiences, but people were just playing with them and destroying them, so I didn't even get close to them. They have beautiful installations but definitely need better organization, taking into consideration the price. Tickets: $40+ Parking: $40 read more

Interesting museum using only balloons for abstract art. They also have an interactive balloon pit with lights and music. The exhibit is about 1.5 hours long. read more

I was ecstatic when the Balloon Museum came to Miami because I've heard such amazing things about this museum and I could not wait to go. My cousin and I booked the earliest time slot they had, which is 10 AM. I highly encourage purchasing your tickets online in advance. Also during the morning time, the museum is not as crowded as it could be. The entire museum is an interactive and immersive with multiple exhibits with the reoccurring theme of balloon art. Each area gives has a sign describing that the artwork, and helpful guides that help you along on the way. My favorite part of the museum was the black ball pit and (as I call it "the hurricane of balloons" (lol), where the balloons are in a flurry, circling around as wind is pushed through. This museum is so colorful, bright, and engaging that people of all ages would enjoy. This is a great summertime activity for families. Also, this is a a great and fun date spot. I'm unsure of how long the museum will stay in Miami, so I suggest everyone check it out before it leaves. read more

This is a temporary exhibit in Miami. At first, I thought it was too childish, but the more you walk through it, the better it gets. We got the pre-sale tickets with a 50% discount. Check the waiting list to see if you can get the discount. Estimate at least an hour and a half to see everything. You cannot skip sections since you must go through the whole path. We were 6 adults and we all love it. If you have kids, they are going to like it even more. You should try to find parking on the street since the parking fee is $30, which is too much considering the regular price of the ticket is $44. read more

So cute!!! Might be a little steep on price but definitely worth it for any modernist or abstract fan. The story behind the art was wonderful and some of the pieces were crazy to imagine. Great for kids and the family so definitely recommend as entry level art. read more

We had such an amazing time at the balloon museum. I was totally skeptical about it and was kind of dreading going but I was wrong. My kids had an amazing time and honestly so did we. They have a bunch of immersive art displays and even a huge ball pit. It's expensive and so is parking, but it's Wynwood and you really can't expect otherwise. read more

The entry for veterans is faster than regular entry so that was a plus because there was a line to get in. The exhibits sparked curiosity in everyone and activated imaginations in adults with the playful interactive experience of many exhibitions. The spray bubble machines smelled weird and I didn't want to be around them or breathe that obnoxious smell in. Other than that it's a definite come back spot. read more

Similar experience as many others here. Place was fun, immersive, and different however the parking situation was a nightmare. Predatory towing the minute your 2 hour parking expires. Long wait times inside. Chances are if you're trying to take pictures you'll spend more than 2 hours inside. Either cough up another $15 for an hour or risk an automatic late fee of $100 being sent to your home or your car gets towed by their on site tow truck. I saw multiple people's cars being towed and a family having to chase their car on the back of a tow truck. This is a family event. A kids show. Yet these type of predatory practices that ruin people's experiences go on here under management's supervision is the reason for my low score. If you want money so badly raise your ticket price. read more

Make sure to include this in your plans if you are in Miami. Kids and adults enjoyed. Tickets on weekdays are $5 off vs weekends. Based on Yelp reviews about the expensive parking (plus the risk of towing if you went over the 3 hour max) we elected for street parking continently located just out side the gate for $3/hr (loaded the parking app and it allowed us to add time if needed). Allow at least 2 hours to enjoy this. read more

I'm gunna give it a low score because the issue with parking. Make this make sense. First of the doors don't open till the exact time you slot was purchased. You have to wait outside until or in your until then. If you arrive before the time you paid for you will pay a huge parking fee. If you arrive at the precise time you don't which makes no sense. Have fun shelling out another $40. The tickets were less. If you don't pay you will get ticketed or be towed. Right now there is a very long line in the sun to get in. For the price of the tickets AND parking they should make it available to wait inside. If I knew this I wouldn't not have come and wasted all that money and time. read more

Amazing museum. Has some illusions and epileptic flashes by the way, however it is kid friendly. Hyperstellar was one of my favorite experiences here, while the most boring one being the GINJOS, still not boring though after all. They got balloon storms, bubble storms, a pool of rubber balls, and more. They also got some cool places to take photos in. They even got VRs to experience. Overall, it was a great museum. read more

I loved every exhibit I went to. I went with my girl and the experience was Amazing. I do hope they come back next year.

I am 65 years old, I decided to take a day trip 1 hour 10 minute ride to the Mana Wynwood Balloon Museum with my 2, 8 year old grand children. When I got there parking was 20.00 no problem- they would not take cash. the guy said, give me your phone and you can pay online. I just let him do it. I have been informed after getting a 100.00 parking ticket in the mail that I only had 2 hours to park! What!! This is crazy. I called the number they said there are signs posted every where that say you only have a specific amount of time in the museum - That's a blatant lie. I saw no signs about parking times! . We did not make any stops in the museum its like a walk through and there are people directing you to and from exhibits. There is a ball pit part of this exhibit. I want to say they should tell children to take there shoes off as my gran daughter lost her shoe. We did find the shoe because I insisted that they had to stay in one area only. We I questioned a staff member about telling the children to take off their shoes so they don't lose them, he said there was a sign for that also. I tried to call Wynn wood Number but there is no answer any where. What a disappointment. Its mostly about the 2 hour parking limit that expired and caused me a 1000 Ticket!! Which I was never told about from the man that took my phone to pay the fee! I'm really disappointed in the money part. It was $123.000 entry fee, 1 hour 10 minute ride to get there, lunch and balloons for souvenirs were 65.00 and the 100.00 ticket which I will dispute. 290.00 for an event was a lot of money for me. read more

I loved the concept, the idea, and the art exhibits. The creators and artists of this museum are very talented. But the management of operations is very poor, and that's why my rating is not as good. Both of our kids fell and had minor injuries, which could be a coincidence but still - that was a bit concerning. But my biggest complain goes to the staff who tried to kick us out at the end of the exhibit when we were waiting in line to take photos. The lady said we were delaying others by waiting in line. This was completely out of line, considering we just paid $160 for tickets for our group and it has not even been an hour of our time. That was rude and makes me not want to come back, or recommend this place to my friends. In addition, it was extremely crowded. Seemed like this museum wanted to collect as much $$$ as possible by shoving these many people at the same time to maximize profits. It's hard to have an enjoyable experience when you have that many people in one place. Won't be back. read more

The emuseum experience is good, ecept the organization of the event when it comes to parking. Be careful, there is a mafia between parkers and the tow truck owner. They misinform you at the time of parking and when you leave, the big surprise is that your car was towed. Paying 250 dollars is a scam. The towing company named Molina Towing, the owner of the towing company, rides in a black Mercedes 550 through the park lot in conjunction with supposed parkers and then executes a tow when going to the place where your car is towed. ugly of this world and rude since it does not give you proof of the reason or reason for towing and in the place like 7 families with the same case of insured fraud and theft I do not advise going to surprises read more
