Petersen Automotive Museum Resumes Guided Tours, Interactive Exhibits

The Petersen Automotive Museum is extending its business hours to include Tuesdays, restarting its docent-guided tours and reopening its Forza racing simulators for public use, the museum announced. The museum is also reopening its highly interactive Pixar Discovery Center for kids, which is home to the Cars Mechanical Institute.

“As the state of California has continued to reopen, we are excited to reopen along with it and resume some of the initiatives and experiences we had in place pre-pandemic,” said Petersen Automotive Museum Executive Director Terry L. Karges. “The Petersen experience is educational by nature and hands-on; interactive learning is one of the most valuable tools to stimulate both sides of the brain. Docent-guided tours and captivating experiences for children are an important part of the experience we provide at the museum to educate the public about the automobile.”

The Petersen Automotive Museum is open Tuesday through Sunday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and will remain closed on Mondays.
