Phillip and Patricia Frost Museum of Science

Ticket prices vary with the visit date, and young children, members, first responders, active military and veterans enter free, as of Oct 2026. When booking, check which planetarium shows your ticket includes. The Book box on this page shows partner tickets and current prices.

On Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, until 6:00 PM. Earlier in the week it usually keeps 10:00 AM–5:00 PM, as of Oct 2026. The museum opens every day, so it works as a flexible indoor stop, and planetarium shows and live demonstrations follow a daily schedule you can check on arrival.

Many visitors allow about 3–4 h, as of Nov 2026. The aquarium spreads over several levels around a deep central tank, a planetarium show adds to the visit, and the halls on flight, light and the human body fill the rest.

In our plans: Day 4, “PAMM & Frost Science Museum”. Frost Science sits in Museum Park downtown, right next to PAMM, so many visitors combine the aquarium and an art museum in one day. As an indoor stop it also suits a rainy or very hot day.
