804 Day

Celebrate the best Richmond has to offer, support RVA’s favorite science museum and beat the heat by spending 804 Day at the Science Museum of Virginia.

Join us on August 4 (8/04 … get it?!) for interactive and engaging programming that will feed your curiosity, spark inspiration and encourage discovery. Enjoy Science Museum favorites you know and love—rat basketball, air hockey robot, hurricane simulator, sprint track, human hamster wheel—plus new additions here this summer—Ultimate Dinosaurs, Towers of Tomorrow with LEGO® Bricks and Dinosaurs of Antarctica.

Because 804 Day is a special opportunity to celebrate Richmond’s community and culture, we’re offering a special discounted ticket price: general admission is just $10 per person on August 4. If you're coming from the 434, 540, 757 or anywhere else, you're welcome to celebrate 804 Day with us, too!

Admission

The $10 admission includes general admission, the Towers of Tomorrow with LEGO® Bricks touring exhibition, labs and demos. It does not include Dome features or the Ultimate Dinosaurs touring exhibition, but those can easily be added to a Science Museum ticket for just $5 each.

Discounted general admission tickets are available to educators, military and EBT-cardholders. These tickets require showing proof of eligibility and must be purchased in-person at Guest Services.
