Fantastic place! My husband and I spend a good 3 hours here in the Grammy Museum. There is so much to see and do. You can play instruments, listen to so much varied music. Great to see so many people with headphones jigging to the music they have chosen! There are outfits worn by the famous to various Grammy Awards... More

We went and discovered tt was a free day and it was too busy to really enjoy. I would have preferred to pay so I could've really enjoyed the exhibits without being shoved away. Otherwise the museum is a great way to spend an hour or two. More

If you love music this is a must see. They have interactive instruments, clothing worn by the performers and great pictures. Leave a lot of time in that there is a lot to see. More

Really fun. I spent a lot of time here. Many interactive exhibits and interesting collections are on display. I loved the sound exhibit where you experience what music sounded like on various recording/playback devices. Highly recommend checking this out. More

It was a pretty cool museum if you love music and enjoy learning its history. Some parts were interactive which was cool. it was a bit on the pricey side but i believe after a certain time there may be a discount. Def check out the website about that and save yourself some money. More

This compact four-storey museum in the heart of the L.A. Live complex has plenty of both information and hand-on interactive displays that explore nearly every type of music - and those who performed it the best. There are numerous retrospective exhibits and timeline histories for all genres of music that help show each genre's origins and how they have interacted... More

We had no idea how much time to plan to explore this museum so allowed two hours - after all the website suggested parking in Lot E which is two hour parking for only $5 and a lot more money if you go beyond the two hour limit. There are a lot of videos and audios to listen to as... More

I spent nearly 4 hours there, listening and learning. It's a great place for music lovers. Definitely not a destination to miss when you're in LA. More

We visited the Grammy Museum with our group as part of of Music Educational Trip. We had a private tour of the museum before the doors actually opened and got to interact with the exibits, visit the different floors and view a private show in the Clive Davis Theatre. The staff are friendly and our guide was fantastic. No photos... More
