Black Friday Deals Abound at Philly Museums, Theaters, and Attractions
With Thanksgiving just around the corner, Philadelphia is gearing up to kick off the holiday shopping season. While shoppers will be flocking to big-box stores for door-busting deals, some of the city's top museums, theaters, and attractions are offering their own exclusive Black Friday bargains.
The Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts (PAFA) is kicking things off with a 30% discount on select items in its museum store. From holiday decorations to art prints and jewelry, shoppers can snag great deals both online and in-person. However, be warned: once you use your coupon, it's non-refundable.
Meanwhile, the Museum of Illusions is offering up to 30% off gift cards between $25 and $200. These can be purchased online using promo code "BLACKFRIDAY30" and used on tickets or merchandise.
The Barnes Foundation, a renowned art institution, is also getting in on the action with 15% off its online art classes for 2026. Use promo code "BLACKFRIDAY15" before midnight on Friday to sign up.
But one of the biggest deals comes from the Franklin Institute, where customers can score 20% off their membership purchase using promo code "CYBERMON25". This means unlimited free admission, planetarium passes, and savings on ticketed exhibitions – a true steal for any science buff.
Other notable deals include DoStuff215 Pass's holiday gift idea: a yearlong membership for $50 (usually $84). Legoland Discovery Center is offering up to 40% off tickets and passes, while Cirque du Soleil's "LUZIA" production is offering discounts on select performances at the Greater Philadelphia Expo Center.
Shoppers looking for great gift ideas won't be disappointed. Whether you're a film buff, art lover, or just someone who loves exploring new attractions, there's something for everyone this Black Friday and Cyber Monday in Philly.

Ugh, sounds like the whole city is just going to get crazy crowded on Black Friday 
... and those lines at the Franklin Institute are already gonna be a nightmare 
... not to mention all the non-refundable coupons 
... what's up with that? 
! i mean, who needs to fight the crowds at the mall when u can get 30% off art prints @ the PAFA? but seriously, if u r lookin for a good deal on tickets or membership, the franklin institute is killin' it with 20% off 
. anyway, just don't forget to use ur coupons before they expire, lol! 
but like the pafa store discount thing is kinda lame cuz they said it's non-refundable if u use ur coupon lol what's the point of that? anyway, i think its dope that philly museums and theaters are offering these sweet discounts & gift ideas...like who doesnt love art, science, or a good circus show 
i'm thinking of getting my sister a legoland pass for christmas this year - shes been bugging me to take her since forever 
20% off membership purchase? that's literally a steal for any science nerd out there 
plus unlimited free admission to the planetarium & ticketed exhibitions... what more could u ask for?! 
.
! Nowadays, it feels like every single thing is a sale or discount. I mean, who needs a 20% off membership deal? Can't you just pay full price and enjoy your museum visit in peace? 
!
20% off membership means unlimited admission to the planetarium and all that jazz. it's like getting the ultimate science geek gift for someone on your list... plus you're supporting a great cause 
the science museum deal though seems super legit with unlimited free admission and all that jazz, idk how i would pass up that 
. Plus, it's just another excuse for people to overspend and make the holiday shopping season even more stressful. Can't they just leave some things at their normal prices?! 
The museums and theaters are killing it with these deals! PAFA is giving me major Christmas vibes with that 30% discount on art prints - I need to cop some cool gifts for my friends ASAP! 
This is gonna be the best Black Friday shopping experience ever! 
And 40% off Legoland Discovery Center tickets? My kiddo would be so hyped 
. Also, Cirque du Soleil's "LUZIA" show is supposed to be mind-blowing... might have to splurge on that one too 
. But what I love about this Black Friday deal is that it's not just for the big-box stores - our local museums and attractions are really showing off their own unique deals 
. Can't wait to check some of these out with friends and family!
I mean who doesn't love scoring some awesome deals on museums and theaters? the pennsylvania academy of the fine arts is giving a solid 30% off their store, that's like, a steal! 
I'm also loving the franklin institute's deal on membership - unlimited free admission? yes please! 
. Meanwhile, the Museum of Illusions' gift cards offer a clever way to give science enthusiasts and magic fans an immersive experience 
.
. It's also heartening to see that there are so many options available for people looking for unique gifts, whether it's a yearlong DoStuff215 Pass or a Cirque du Soleil performance 
.
, why are museums and theaters offering discounts on Black Friday? It's not like they're going out of business or anything... just because Thanksgiving is over doesn't mean people aren't going to spend money on their stuff 
. Give me a break! Can't they just stick to their regular prices and let people enjoy themselves without feeling like they're being ripped off
