International Museum Day

I never heard of it before, but, yes, there is such a thing.

It is celebrated annually on 18 May in many countries. For those on tour now or starting a tour in the next week, be advised that admission to many (most?) "museums," at least national ones, in many countries will be free on 18 May.

  • International Museum Day in some cities features very late hours, even some all-night openings. The US for some reason has a different Museum Day, this year on Sept. 24. Sponsored by the Smithsonian, museums around the country open their doors. In the past you have had to sign up online.
