Looking for something fun to do over the weekend? Admission to the Broad is free and Parking is $19. Accessible by the metro, a stroll the Walt Disney Concert Hall. Living in Los Angeles, it's kind of rare to feel like a tourist in your own city. The Broad is a stunning gallery that has amazing pieces on display! We definitely booked tickets for Takashi Murakami and decided to double up on the Infinity Room. It was so fun and please do not sleep on the gift shop. The Takashi pins are nice gifts! read more

The Broad - The Infinity Room - Art Museums Near Me - Los Angeles, California

5.8.26 Tickets are recommended and can be reserved on their website, though walk-ins are accepted. Options include General Admission or General Admission with access to the Infinity Mirrored Room (reservations for this open the last Wednesday of each month). I mistakenly booked only General Admission and was disappointed to find that the Infinity Room was fully booked at my time slot. General admission includes access to the museum's third-floor galleries. I typically gravitate toward art museums over history or science museums, and this one delivered. The collection features primarily paintings, along with several portraits and sculptures--engaging and thought-provoking throughout. There is a parking garage located beneath the museum. Rates are $19 for the first three hours with museum validation, $7 for each additional 15 minutes, with a $29 daily maximum. There's also a $19 flat rate after 5 pm on weeknights and all day on weekends. read more

The amazing art collection is huge in scale and quality. The building itself is artfully designed and accessible. As impressive as the above is I was equally as impressed with the attendees. I have never seen as diverse a crowd of young people at any art museum across the US and much of Europe. From singles and couples to families everyone was enjoying the visual spectacles and taking in art! It gave my soul a much needed boost in confidence for the generations coming up. Here's the "KICKER" entrance is free to the public through the generosity of the Broad family whose desire was and is to make art accessible to the people. AMAZING! read more

The Broad is one of the best museum stops in Downtown LA, especially if you're already exploring Grand Avenue, Disney Concert Hall, MOCA, or Angels Flight. It's located at 221 S. Grand Ave. General admission is free, but I definitely recommend booking timed tickets in advance. Yayoi Kusama's Infinity Mirrored Room requires a separate free timed reservation. The collection is excellent for postwar and contemporary art. Some long-standing highlights include works by Jean-Michel Basquiat, Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, Jeff Koons, Barbara Kruger, Takashi Murakami, and Yayoi Kusama. The security guards/workers were actually engaged in their jobs and protecting the art from patrons who got too close. I've seen many in museums that just sit there and aren't even paying attention. Free admission, a world-class collection, and a great downtown location make it an easy recommendation. read more

The Broad is a contemporary art museum in downtown Los Angeles. It's free but you do need to make reservations on line. Parking is available for 19.00 but today is Thursday not sure if the price varies on the weekends. This is our second time visiting it was very nice, not that big, but my teenager enjoyed him self. Very clean, and organized even the bathrooms are pretty:) and not so crowded. So glad we came!! read more

If you love art, you should definitely check out this museum. I was told these pieces are part of their main collection. The entrance upstairs is free but if you want to go into the infinity room, you need to make a reservation. To our surprise, the room is tiny and you only get 50 seconds in there so make sure your cameras are out and ready to go! Also, no selfie sticks are allowed due to hanging lights and what not. They had some cool pieces inside. You can probably finish the entire thing in an hour or less but super dope to check out with friends. read more

**FAVORITE ART MUSEUM IN LA** This is my go-to museum whenever friends visit from out of town. It's free, visually stunning, and always impresses, even people who don't usually visit museums. PARKING I usually park across the street at the Walt Disney Concert Hall garage (enter on 2nd Street) for flat fee of $10. THE MUSEUM The Broad is one of the best free museums in Los Angeles and a must-visit if you enjoy contemporary art. The collection includes bold, modern works and rotating exhibitions, so every visit feels a little different. One of the biggest highlights is the immersive installations, including Yayoi Kusama's famous Infinity Mirror Rooms. Even if you're not a regular museum-goer, the exhibits are engaging and easy to explore at your own pace. And the building itself is worth the visit. The honeycomb-like exterior design is iconic and looks incredible from every angle, great for photos before or after your visit. OTHER TIPS * Reserve free tickets online in advance when possible. Walk-ins are allowed, but lines can get long on weekends. * Visit earlier in the day if you want smaller crowds and easier access to popular installations. * Plan about 1-2 hours to explore comfortably. * Make it part of a Downtown LA day. Grand Central Market and Walt Disney Concert Hall are both a short walk away. * Check the website for special exhibitions, which may require a paid ticket. OVERALL Thought-provoking art, striking architecture, and free admission make The Broad one of the best cultural experiences in Los Angeles. read more

The Broad is definitely worth a visit if you're in LA! It's a free museum and it features two Kusama infinity mirror rooms (one of which requires advance tickets), Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, Jeff Koons, and Robert Therrien pieces in their collection. If you don't book general admission tickets in advance, there is a standby line where a staff member will help you get situated. Food and drinks are not allowed in the exhibits, but fortunately, there is a complimentary bag check to leave your water bottle or large bags. We booked the Kusama tickets the night before. Tickets were still available same-day, but were a few hours out (walk-ins for the Kusama room are not permitted). The timed tickets are when you can start lining up for the installation. The layout of the museum is spacious and never felt overcrowded. We spent about an hour here. read more

The museum scene in LA is spectacular. You have loads of places to choose from, and they're mostly all free... You just need to book your tickets in advance online. The Broad did not disappoint. We saw fantastic works of art, including an experience in their infinity room. The buildings architecture is stunning, the gift shop has loads of unique gifts and the temporary exhibit space while we were there was excellent as well. That's the only part that required any paid ticket and was well worth it. The also have a parking garage onsite that was clean and reasonably priced on the weekend. Highly recommend a stop here! read more

My first time here! I got online and reserved two FREE passes for today. An email came shortly with my tickets . There is a parking structure just before the entrance. ( go down same street as La concert hall parking ) Take your ticket with you to get it validated at a parking machine by the museum exit for a discounted rate ($19 for 3hours). We were advised by the museum staff to start on the 3rd floor unless you have a reservation time for the special exhibits. Impressive collection of contemporary art. We spent about 1 1/2 hours enjoying the Art , some that I recognized and others I did not . I like the larger than life pieces and was happy to see the Balloon dog and Tulips by Jeff Koons. On your way out take time to look at the museum shop. Many unique items for purchase. Remember to validate your parking ticket as you leave. read more

Such a cool museum in LA. Initially came for just the kusama installations but the rest of the museum is actually pretty cool. Has a decent amount of cool artists and they are planning an expansion in lieu of the Olympics coming. Definitely don't forget to order your tickets online ahead of time for the kusama experience. It's just one room, but it has timed slots for when you can get in line for it. Also they book up really quickly the day of, so try to make your plans ahead of time accordingly. read more

Even before I lived in LA, I made sure to visit The Broad at least once a year. It's the best museum on the West Coast in terms of collection quality and overall experience -- and that's coming from someone who visits the de Young Museum a couple of times a year and tends to wander into every gallery along the way. The Infinity Mirror Rooms are an experience in themselves and worth planning around. But my real insider tip is to sign up for a docent-led tour. On our last visit we join a tour and learned not only the history behind the works, but also how to look at them. One piece, for example, is actually meant to be viewed with a camera flash -- something I never would have known otherwise. Free public tours take place every Tuesday and Friday at 3:00 pm, and they add depth to the visit. Beyond the galleries, The Broad functions as an iconic cultural hub. They host after-hours events and community programming -- I once attended a Rio Collection fashion show here, which was a fun celebration of local creativity. They also offer many family-friendly events. A world-class museum that's generous, accessible, and deeply embedded in the cultural life of the city. read more

Our favorite U.S. museum! We stop by The Broad most times we're in LA. #1because it's always so cool #2 because it's free. They always feature fun, modern art that can be enjoyed by kids and adults, even if you're not into art. There is a great energy the moment you step into the museum. The space is not as massive as the Getty or LACMA. But within their space, they pack in some choice art work that really captures your attention. We also love their special exhibits. read more

It's been a while since I was last at this museum. We had a spare day that was open so what better way than to spend some time walking around and enjoying some art. When you arrive, there's two line upon entrance. One was for reservations while the other was walk in. As we had reservations, it was pretty fast. Once inside, the main exhibit room is up a flight of escalators, the third floor. As you approach the top, you're greeted with the first amazing piece, Jeff Koons tulips. If you know you know, it's just amazing. As that the start of the exhibit, you'll enter through different rooms which houses different artists. Just walking through and seeing all amazing pieces from different artists just gives you that feeling of like wow. I'm looking at some expensive pieces...lol... I don't know how often they change exhibits but you'll see all the classic pieces that calls this place home. They did have a couple of spots that were under renovation for a new exhibit. Of course there's the large scale sculpture tables and chair by Robert Therrien. An amazing piece that gets you under the table, literally. Then you have a massive collection of Jeff Koons with the famous ballon dog and Micheal Jackson and Bubbles. Some other amazing exhibitions includes, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, Barbara Kruger, Robert Therrien and Takashi Murakami. Each artist showcases their unique talents. Some pieces are well known that you know who they are just by seeing them. While others are a surprise when finding out who the artist is. This museum showcases some amazing artists. Down stairs you have the famous infinity mirror room. On the main floor is the gift shop which offers loads of amazing gift, art, jewelry, figurines and books for purchase. This museum is a must to check out. It's free but reservations are highly recommended. It's located downtown across the street from the music center and Ahmanson theater. read more

Basquiat! Wwarholll! Lichtenstein! How lovely to see some of my favorite artists work for free! Just reserve your ticket online a few days before. Easy peasy! Disappointed no Calders were in display.

A world class museum in the heart of downtown LA. Admission is free but you have to get a reservation online for admission.

A great way to spend a few hours in an amazing top class museum. read more

I have come to The Broad several times and each time I'm blown away. It's something about the way this place is designed, so airy and full of light, that keeps me so inspired and excited to come back. I love that little things have changed over the years and I think they have one of the best gift shops. Such cool pieces surround a well thought out flow and that's where I get lost and have the best time here. The Murakami Exhibit has been one of my faves and I can't wait to visit again' read more

I've been to The Broad many times now, probably close to ten visits, and somehow it never gets old. This time I was able to see the general collection, the ticketed Robert Therrien: This Is a Story galleries, and finally experience Yayoi Kusama's Infinity Mirrored Room, The Souls of Millions of Light Years Away, which I've seen all over social media for years. Even after so many visits, that room still feels magical in person and completely different than seeing it on a screen. The special exhibition was fantastic, and the free galleries continue to be generous, engaging, and full of moments that make you stop and linger. It's one of my favorite places to spend a few hours because every visit feels familiar but still manages to show me something new. read more

I have been spending more time out in LA and wanted to make the most of it, so I visited this museum as well. The Ads kept popping up in my socials so I decided to rsvp date/time slot. Luckily, the general admission is free but they do offer other art shows for fees. Parking can be a hit or miss, it is better to utilize metered parking spots and pay with the app, FYI. Upon entering, the staff directs you to go up the third floor and start the exhibition. It sure was a busy and crowded Saturday as people were already there and my rsvp was at 1115AM. I was lucky enough to stroll around and get by through the crowds as I enjoyed art to myself. Being there and reflecting through art pieces was very therapeutic for me. In addition, it is also a learning opportunity. I had to see it in person myself "Under The Table" by Robert Therrien, 1194: A gigantic table with chairs. The artist fused his idea with "Alice in Wonderland" concept. He nailed it. Additionally, it is nearly ten feet tall and walking underneath makes you feel like the "small object" Very popular and many were taking photos of it or with it. Browsing around took me to see the famous "Michael Jackson and Bubbles" statue by Jeff Koons. And nearby, was the famous "Balloon Dog" (blue) "Balloon Dog is literal and abstract. When standing close to it, one's own distorted reflection bends around smooth pert curves." So many cool art displays to view in person, I recommend it as a daytrip for anyone who wants to indulge in learning about art. read more

Did the infinity room and general admission to the top floor of The Broad. Infinity room requires timed admission and you only get 60 seconds in there so be prepared and use them wisely. If you want pics, check online in advance for cool picture set up and be prepared to execute. The top floor general admission has some good art. Modern size and different things to choose from. Enter earlier on the day for fewer crowds and easier parking nearby. read more

Closed Sundays ( Thanksgiving and Christmas ). Some special exhibitions and events have an additional charges. Check out their website for details before you go. They do have a parking garage for a fee. There is also other parking garages in the area if this one is full. You can carry a bag in. Your backpack must be carried in front so you do not accidentally knock anything over. No foods or drinks allowed. They have mobile guidance of the museum. We had it through our headphones so we could have an audio tour. The museum changes with special exhibits. Their website will give you the latest. Overall, if you enjoy art, you'll love the Broad!

I've known about the Broad for about a decade, especially that infinity room since inception. However, I didn't have a chance to visit until recently, and it was underwhelming. Reservations are almost a must to get into the infinity room exhibit, but it's free - online! I recommend parking / carpooling here. The parking lot may sometimes get full, and I ended up parking at the Walt Disney Concert Hall across the street ($10) and walking over. Upon entering The Broad, my group did the Infinity Room first. You go in by the reservation and are given ~ 1 minute each. I recommend RSVP separately vs group so you can all get individual photos, maybe even 2 people max. Enjoying the rest of The Broad for the next hour was easy. We first took the escalator up into what feels like a cave suited for climbing (but it's not a cave, and you can't climb it). The artwork on display was immaculate; there were so many well displayed. Some provide for great photo opps, too! Once you're finished on the top floor, you can take the stairs back down and eventually reach the first floor again for the gift shop - a whole circular, well-designed experience. read more

I came to The Broad museum as part of my visit to downtown Los Angeles. The museum itself is a big attraction in the area because it houses incredible art pieces and it's free. It is highly suggested that you go to their website to acquire tickets to guarantee your entry especially if you want to go inside the Infinity Room. Fortunately for me, I stayed at the Omni Hotel and those tickets are given freely to all guests staying at the hotel. The Broad houses more contemporary art. I came on Sunday and wasn't as crowded. Just make sure you get tickets before going. read more

My friend and I decided to go on a museum date to The Broad to see the Takashi Murakami exhibit on display that we saw on social media. The exhibit was small, but each piece was very memorable. It was my first time going to The Broad so we checked out the whole museum. I was very surprised by the limited number of art pieces on display given the museum has three floors. We covered everything in roughly 1 hour. However, general admission is free and the art collections on display are well-curated and thought-provoking. A convenient and attached parking garage is available for a $19 fee, allowing visitors to park and then travel to other parts of Los Angeles for activities such as dinner, without the hassle of securing new parking. I recommend booking tickets ahead of time as you need a timed-entry reservation to guarantee admission. I was unable to get tickets to the Yayoi Kasama's Infinity Mirrors Room even though I looked to book a week in advance. I was able to get general admission tickets only though. read more

Don't miss their awesome musuem shop and the Disney Concert Hall next door for their outdoor garden!

The Broad is a contemporary art museum located in Downtown Los Angeles near the Walt Disney Concert Hall. The museum spans 3 floors with bold, modern art pieces. While some line the walls, others are immersive and allow you to walk through them. You've probably seen many of them on instagram: the big chairs, the inflatable balloon looking pieces and of course, the infinity mirror room. The museum is free, a rarity in LA. It is highly advised that you book tickets online ahead of time. While I was lucky to come during a fairly not busy time, it can get very busy and you will be turned away without a ticket. You also need a separate ticket to visit the Infinity Room. You need to stand in the line within 10 minutes of your ticketed time. You cannot enter separately from your party. If your ticket covers 3 people, you go in with 3 people. You have 1 minute in the room. When we came on a weekend, the parking lot was full. Luckily, we found street parking on the street below the Broad, so it was free. read more

Free! Infinity room! Those are my key words for The Broad in Los Angeles. If you are coming with a child, there is a station just by the entrance where your wee one can be charged with a quest. It really gets them interested in looking around the museum. And when they are done finding everything listed, they get a prize! The Broad is kind of cool, and kind of small. But hey, it is free, and interesting enough. I liked the balloon doggo. And we saw a line, so we got in it. At the end was a mirrored box with holes. Turns out it was perfect for our party of 3, as there are 3 holes you can stick your head into, including one that was at a perfect level for the child in our group to us. We also made a reservation in advance for the Infinity Room. The line took some time, but nothing crazy, and we got the room all to ourselves for a minute. That was cool too! read more
