Before you book

The Vault: more than 250 additional vehicles

The Vault is located in the basement of the Petersen Automotive Museum and contains more than 250 additional vehicles. If you want a more complete Los Angeles car museum experience, this access is the main feature that sets the ticket apart from standard admission.

The visit is self-guided, takes around 90 minutes and includes audio content accessed using a QR code.

Who is this ticket best for?

It is particularly worthwhile for serious car fans, movie-car enthusiasts and visitors interested in Los Angeles automotive culture.

Families with children aged 10 and over may also enjoy the highly visual and interactive exhibits. If you only want the cheapest museum ticket, have little interest in cars or plan a short visit, standard admission without The Vault may offer better value.

The activity is listed as wheelchair accessible. Smoking is prohibited, and you should check access conditions and the restriction for children under 10 before booking.
