Seattle Museum Month is set to mark its 10th anniversary in 2025, offering an unparalleled opportunity for visitors to explore the city’s premier museums and cultural centers affordably and conveniently. Throughout the entire month of February, guests lodged at any of 71 selected downtown hotels will gain access to a special pass that grants 50% off admission for up to four guests at numerous participating venues. This event is particularly appealing for families, groups, and anyone eager to experience Seattle, whether as a vacation or a staycation, providing significant savings coupled with engaging new offerings.

One of the highlights this year includes the Seattle Aquarium’s newly expanded Ocean Pavilion, which now features the expansive “The Reef” exhibit, representing the rich biodiversity of the Coral Triangle in the Indo-Pacific. Additionally, the Museum of History and Industry will present a unique exhibit titled “Almost Live! (Almost an Exhibit)” which delves into the local sketch comedy show that broadcasted on KING 5 from 1984 to 1999.

“At W Seattle, we love Seattle Museum Month in February. Our location at Fourth and Seneca, in the financial and cultural core of the city, is ideal for guests to enjoy all the great museums throughout Seattle,” said Greg Campbell, director of sales and marketing at W Seattle. “We also offer wonderful works of art in our own hotel with multiple murals by artist Morgan Zion, including an entire floor called ‘FACES,’ dedicated to the people, places and neighborhoods that make Seattle so special.” 

Staying at one of the centrally located downtown hotels not only offers convenience and comfort but is also the exclusive means to obtain a Seattle Museum Month pass, unlocking considerable discounts at key city attractions.

New this year, the Log House Museum, a cherished historical site near Alki Beach, joins the program, inviting visitors to delve into Seattle’s dynamic history and cultural roots. “Seattle Museum Month is a fantastic tradition that showcases our vibrant local museum community. It’s thrilling to be part of what is arguably one of the top museum cities globally,” commented Elizabeth Rudrud, the director of programs and community outreach at the Log House Museum.

“Seattle Museum Month is an awesome tradition celebrating the dynamic and robust local museum community. We are so lucky to be a part of one of the best museum cities in the world,” says Elizabeth Rudrud, programs and community outreach director at the Log House Museum. “Our current exhibit, ‘Seattle’s Forest: The West Duwamish Greenbelt,’ highlights the geologic, Indigenous, and political history of the city’s largest contiguous forest. It was developed by community partners including the West Duwamish Greenbelt Trails Group and the Duwamish Tribe. We are honored to welcome visitors from around the world to share the history of this significant place.”
