What better way to take on the dreary Seattle winter than a month of cozy museum days? Seattle Museum Month is scheduled to return for the entire month of February, 2026, offering visitors and locals alike an opportunity to explore the Emerald City’s cultural landscape, art, and history with unbeatable deals. The program, presented by Visit Seattle, is designed as the perfect backdrop for a discounted getaway or staycation throughout the month of February.
The central offer allows guests who book a night at one of more than 70 participating downtown hotels in February to receive half-price admission for up to four people at a wide array of premier museums and attractions across the region.
The program encourages attendance at numerous exhibits, including:
Anila Quayyum Agha: Geometry of Light at the Seattle Asian Art Museum, which focuses on the interplay of light and geometric shadows.
Woven in Wool: Resilience in Coast Salish Weaving at the Burke Museum, showcasing historical and contemporary woven items.
New Nordic: Cuisine, Aesthetics and Place at the National Nordic Museum, exploring a new food movement and its influence on local ingredients and natural materials.
On top of the premier exhibits, visitors are also invited to check out the Seattle Aquarium’s new Ocean Pavilion and the recently opened Waterfront Park.
For locals, the month is positioned as an especially budget-friendly way to rediscover world-class art and history.
