It was a good Father's Day trip. Neat exhibits. Loved the Ringo star exhibit. It's a great thing to do at LA Live. I loved how they had all these creative very hands on exhibits. It was super interactive. But two things sort of bothered me. 1) The videos of the previous Grammy awards both when you walk in on... More

Saw Ringo's new exhibit and it's wonderful. This is an excellent place for people who love music history, as I do.

It's basically a museum of course but I enjoyed hearing some genres and songs I haven't heard in a while. The stage costumes and personal writings are quite fascinating too. I don't know about you but museums just make my legs ache, so if you are like me, give it an hour.

This is a great museum and an incredible value for anyone interested in any form of music. The displays are top-notch, the equipment/listening rooms are of great quality, and if you're an audiophile, it will not disappoint at all. Also, it's part of L.A. Live in Downtown L.A., so it's easy accessible and has plenty of dining options right next... More

What a great place for everyone. It's very interactive in playing instruments, being in the recording studio, using the knobs for voice/sound modulation, and listening to yourself rap. There are different booths that teach you different steps in recording (ie mixing, voice pans, etc) There is a wall of past Grammy winners for Album of the year since its very... More

Cool music museum in the heart of downtown. Went with teen son and it was pretty cool. Lots of hands on stuff and very diverse in the variety of music represented. Had some special limited time displays for Whitney Houston, wasn't too big into that being that she is known for her drug abuse as much as she is for... More

This is a really great museum. We didn't plan on going to see it but stumbled upon it and thought 'why not?'. We were really glad we ended up going, it was one of the best things we did in LA. It is a very interactive museum and has something for lovers of all genres. I learnt a lot and... More

We went there to see the Michael Jackson exhibit. We were bummed there weren't more personal items to look at in his exhibit but overall the museum was nice. The history of music, playing musical instruments, and the music studio rooms were a lot of fun and the kids really enjoyed that. The entrance fee was fair. Took only about... More

The Grammy Museum offers a fantastic experience, as most of its exhibits are interactive, allowing you to listen, read about and even play and write music in whatever genres interest you. The first exhibit you encounter (on the top floor) is a long table where projected images scroll by. Use your finger to select any of the multitude of music... More

If you're a music lover, you will enjoy this! Quite a bit of memorabilia and interactive activities on three floors. Also, if you have AAA, you can use your card for a savings of $3pp, making the entry fee only $10pp!
