With your health and safety as our top priority, here's how to prepare for your visit to MSI.

We have reduced daily capacity, and all Museum guests—including members—must reserve timed-entry tickets to enter. Book your tickets in advance to reserve your preferred date and time with fast and contactless admission when you arrive.

We are open Tuesdays through Sundays. (See Museum Hours.) With daily capacity limited, some high-demand dates may sell out.

Please reschedule if anyone in your group is experiencing potential COVID-19 symptoms, awaiting COVID test results or has tested positive, or may have had recent COVID close contacts. If you have recently traveled, we expect that you will comply with the current City of Chicago Emergency Travel Advisory.

Rebooking your visit is easy: just email tickethelp@msichicago.org.

Face coverings that fit snugly over the nose and mouth are required for everyone ages 2 and older—regardless of vaccination status. They must be worn at all times unless actively eating or drinking in designated areas. Bandannas, gaiters, masks with vents, or face shields worn alone are not permitted.

Please maintain at least six feet of space between your group and other guests throughout the Museum, including the Entry Hall, exhibit galleries, stores, dining areas, elevators and bathrooms.

Several dining options are available during your time at MSI.
