Not a follower of fútbol? Admission to our exhibitions is free, and there'll be inflatable human foosball, a Fanny's taco stand, and fresh fruit out on the Walt Disney Company Piazza! 

Museum admission is also free; take a lap around our premiere installations, including Jaws: The Exhibition, Studio Ghibli's PONYO, Barbie to Anna Karenina: The Cinematic Worlds of Sarah Greenwood and Katie Spencer, and the iconic ruby slippers in our Identity gallery.

In addition, three films about the beautiful game - Bend it Like Beckham, Shaolin Soccer, and Offside - will be screened. All are in 35mm and free!

Best of all, you don't need to reserve a ticket in advance. Simply show up and let us welcome you.
