Looking for an easy Saturday outing in Los Angeles? The Getty Center is hard to beat.
There’s plenty to enjoy over an afternoon, from the galleries and architecture to the Central Garden, outdoor spaces, and sweeping views across Los Angeles. Give yourself time to wander and take it all in, because there’s much more to the Getty than the art on the walls.
A few things to know before you go:
- Admission is free, but a timed-entry reservation is required.
- Parking is $25 before 3 pm, $15 after 3 pm, and $10 after 6 pm.
- Parking is free after 6 pm on Saturdays, and the Getty Center stays open until 9 pm.
If you’d rather skip the parking altogether, a scheduled drop-off and pickup can make the day even easier. Executive Car Service can take care of the ride so you can focus on the art, the gardens, and the view.
What’s your favorite part of the Getty Center?
