A lot of fun. Full of Sci fi memorabilia. Fun trip to see all the wonderful items from all ranges of Sci fi shows and movies. When I went they had a huge section on Star Trek. Truly a once in a life time experience. Worth the trip alone but don't forget the Space Needle!

The Frank Gehry designed building, the location at the Space Needle, the access via the monorail, this is an experience indeed. A music treasure vault, an interactive music center, this is a must see.

Amazing exhibits! Allow at least a half day to visit because there's so much to see. Definitely worth the cost of admission. We spent about 3 and a half hours there and didn't get to see everything. That included eating at their cafe, which was surprisingly fairly priced. We'll definitely come back next time we come to Seattle.

Been a member for years. Love this place! The horror movie exhibit is my favorite. They rotate items, so there are always new props and items on display each time I visit. Excellent exhibits. The current Pearl Jam exhibit is comprehensive, to say the least.

Still odd to see so much of my own personal history in a museum- the signs for Offramp and Rockcandy! I used to go to those clubs. I had some of the flyers on display on my CH apt walls. Trippy!

We loved this place! Many displays of pop music icons. Nervana! (Cobain's busted up guitar plus). Clothing from Prince. And more. They have videos and headsets at some of the displays so you can hear from the musician or people who knew them. There are also sound booths that you can go into and make your own music. That's really fun! Movie memorabilia. The Cowardly Lion costume and Dorothy's dress from The Wizard of Oz. And more. Lots more. I recommend you check it out. Very cool!

Great museum, it has a lot of interactive experiences which makes it a great place to spend almost a day. Star trek, Horror movies, Jimi Hendrix, David Bowie, Indie Games. Good variety of pop culture galleries.

Surprisingly easy to visit even with COVID restrictions. Staff was friendly and helpful. The reduced number of visitors made for an imperceptible experience as we could easily take pictures and slowly look at all the items of interest.

Fun and insightful place unlike others we ve been to. Tells some great history about Pearl Jam, Jimi Hendrix and Nirvana if you re into the Seattle music scene. Also, you can play tons of instruments upstairs. We loved seeing all of the move props and memorabilia from movies and shows we all love!

Fun for adults and kids alike. Enjoyed the History of Comic Books, as well as the music, sci-fi, fantasy and horror exhibits. Only criticism is the extra charges for a couple exhibits. It seems to me that no single exhibit is large enough to stand alone, therefore one entry fee ought to cover the entire museum.

The temporary Minecraft exhibit is only really worth paying the extra to see for game players who are fans. The sound lab is super fun and interactive. The other exhibitions were much less interactive than I was hoping and were generally collections of memorabilia.

The name "Museum of Pop Culture" is misleading. I found it to be a very narrow definition of "pop culture." If you like Pearl Jam, Nirvana, science fiction and comic books, this place is for you. I dont like any of these things and should have researched before paying $30. Between this and the disappointing space needle, I am disappointed in Seattle.

A one time visit is all you will ever need. A huge part was closed off to us. Okay if you can get someone else to pay for your ticket. This is a one and done place. Where is HEART? They should have a whole room.

Hands down one of the strangest places I've ever been. I was not into music and such, but I still found it quite interesting. If you are into music then seeing this place is a must if you live in Seattle or are stopping by.

I came here with my family, we all had a very good time but the layout was a little confusing, there was five of us and we couldnt figure out where we were going or where we had already been. We were really looking forward to the Seahawks exhibit we had seen in a prior visit but they had it taken out. Overall pretty good experience

What a fun museum!!! I was fangirling all over the place! We were a little disappointed that we missed the Marvel travelling exhibit, because if it had been on par with the other exhibits, it had to have been amazing!! If you're visiting the Space needle, this museum is right next door and makes for a great, full, exciting day in Seattle!!

MoPop was our first stop on our Seattle exploration, and we really enjoyed it. Great exhibits with really great displays and props, including musicians, horror and scifi film, fantasy lands, and more. This place is great and we really enjoyed spending a long afternoon here.

Great museum, but most areas do not change much year to year. Their time limited showings are always well done. I enjoyed their Star Wars display last year. The Marvel display this year is large, well done, and has lots of neat history.

The Museum of Pop Culture is like no other Museum. We brought our teenage family members here and they had a blast. We spent the whole day exploring. It was well worth the money. I would highly recommend coming to MoPop the next time you are in Seattle. Get the city pass, it's worth it!

Quite a steep ticket price, but in the end it was definitely worth it for me. Make sure you have a few hours, we had two hours but the museum is so huge and so it is good to have lots of time! They have a lot of great exhibitions, you can play indie games, I loved the horror and fantasy exhibitions, and I wish I had more time to explore the sound lab as well. The temporary Marvel exhibition is $8 extra but for sure worth it, I really geeked out in there. Go to see a lot of amazing costumes, props and memories from all your favorite horror, fantasy, sci fi and superhero movies!

Totally awsome stuff and a in many ways very interactive setting. Some of the activities doesnt really work, which is a shame... The studieos and music stuff is enough to spend a whole day, but all the movie memoribilia is also worth the visit...
