Spend A Night in a Museum
Have you ever thought what it be like to live out the movie Night at the Museum in real life? What if, the stuffed monkeys and animal bones really do come alive at night?
Well the American Museum of Natural History offers just the chance for guests to sleep over in the museum.

The museum offers three remaining dates for this year to take advantage of this event.
- September 26, 2014 (Friday)
- October 11, 2014 (Saturday)
- October 18, 2014 (Saturday)
Here’s how it works: The doors close, the lights go down and everyone grabs their flashlight for a totally awesome after-hours tour. You’ll see your ancient kin in the hall of human origins. You’ll hang out with dinosaurs. You’ll get up close and personal with fossils. You might even see a live animal or two thanks to the museum’s expert guides, who will show how bats, wolves and birds of prey chill in their habitat once the sun goes down.
Then, you’ll get to doze off on a cot (bring your own sleeping bag and pillow, please) under an enormous blue whale, beneath dioramas of African mammals or amid geological formations.
A light evening snack is provided, and the museum’s food court will remain open until 7:30pm, so there’s time to grab dinner before exploring the museum (and hitting the hay). Breakfast is also served. Note that each group must have a ratio of one adult to every three children.
The sleepover goes from 6pm until 9am the next morning.
Tickets are $123 per person with a minimum of two per party. Definitely pretty pricey, but an interesting experience, none-the-less.
