Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) Tickets

About this experience

Book Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) tickets in New York and see some of the most famous paintings of the last 150 years in one visit, from The Starry Night by Vincent van Gogh and Water Lilies by Claude Monet to Campbell's Soup Cans by Andy Warhol. MoMA sits on West 53rd Street in Midtown Manhattan, and your ticket gives you a set entry time, so you skip the ticket line and go straight to security and into the galleries. What your MoMA ticket includes General admission covers all of MoMA's collection galleries, every current special exhibition and the Sculpture Garden (weather permitting). You also get a free audio guide in nine languages, which you play on your own phone, so bring headphones. The cloakroom is free. Your MoMA ticket also includes same-day film screenings in the museum's theaters, though film seats must be reserved on the day. MoMA PS1, the museum's contemporary art space in Long Island City, Queens, is free for everyone. Famous works to look for MoMA holds around 200,000 works of painting, sculpture, design, photography, film and performance, and the collection galleries tell the story of modern art from the late 19th century to today. Works often on view include: The Starry Night by Vincent van Gogh Water Lilies by Claude Monet, a set of huge panels that fills a whole gallery Les Demoiselles d'Avignon by Pablo Picasso The Persistence of Memory by Salvador Dalí The Sleeping Gypsy by Henri Rousseau Dance (I) by Henri Matisse Campbell's Soup Cans by Andy Warhol Galleries are rehung from time to time and works travel on loan, so check the museum's floor plan when you arrive if there is one piece you must see. Plan your visit MoMA is open every day from 10:30am to 5:30pm, and until 8:30pm on Fridays. It is closed on Thanksgiving and Christmas Day, and the galleries close about 15 minutes before the museum does. Most visitors spend two to three hours inside. Mornings and rainy days can bring a line at the entrance, and the galleries are busiest from midday to mid-afternoon. On Friday evenings from 5:30pm, entry is free for New York State residents with a reservation, so the museum gets very crowded then. Children aged 16 and under enter free, and children under 12 must stay with an adult. MoMA is wheelchair accessible, free wheelchairs are available at the entrance on a first-come, first-served basis, and service animals are welcome. Getting there and entry The general entrance is at 11 West 53rd Street, between Fifth and Sixth Avenues. The 5 Av/53 St station (E and M trains) is just across the street, and the 47-50 Sts/Rockefeller Center station (B, D, F and M trains) is a short walk away. Show the voucher on your phone with a valid photo ID when you arrive. All bags are inspected, and backpacks must be left at the checkroom before you enter the galleries. Rolling bags, scooters, skateboards and items larger than 11 x 17 x 5 inches are not allowed in the museum. More to see in New York Top of the Rock tickets: the observation deck at Rockefeller Center, about three blocks from MoMA.
