Another Round Of Tickets To The Epically Popular Museum Of Ice Cream Go On Sale Friday
Los Angeles' wildly popular Museum of Ice Cream announced Thursday that they will be extending another round of tickets to the public, which will go on sale Friday at 9 a.m. Tickets to the ice cream experience (an eminently Instagrammable paean to sticky, sugary delights) have been sold out for several weeks.
The museum first popped up last year in New York City for a similarly hyped limited time run, and officially opened in L.A. on April 22. The L.A. incarnation, which is four times larger than the New York original, was originally only intended to last through May, but the run has already been extended once due to the extreme demand. This second round of tickets will further extend the museum's L.A. tenure through mid-August. Tickets are available here.
The Museum of Ice Cream is at 2018 E 7th Pl, Los Angeles, (888) 718-4253. Tickets are $29 for adults (13 and above), and $18 for children (age 3 to 12) and seniors (above 60).

At LAist, we believe in journalism without censorship and the right of a free press to speak truth to those in power. Our hard-hitting watchdog reporting on local government, climate, and the ongoing housing and homelessness crisis is trustworthy, independent and freely accessible to everyone thanks to the support of readers like you.
But the game has changed: Congress voted to eliminate funding for public media across the country. Here at LAist that means a loss of $1.7 million in our budget every year. We want to assure you that despite growing threats to free press and free speech, LAist will remain a voice you know and trust. Speaking frankly, the amount of reader support we receive will help determine how strong of a newsroom we are going forward to cover the important news in our community.
We’re asking you to stand up for independent reporting that will not be silenced. With more individuals like you supporting this public service, we can continue to provide essential coverage for Southern Californians that you can’t find anywhere else. Become a monthly member today to help sustain this mission.
Thank you for your generous support and belief in the value of independent news.
