Host an Event
The American Museum of Natural History is celebrating 150 years as a New York City landmark. Its famous halls and architectural accents offer a number of unique settings for your next gathering. Host a gala dinner under the 94-foot blue whale in the Milstein Hall of Ocean Life, or in the stunning Rose Center for Earth and Space, or enjoy a cocktail reception next to the most dynamic dinosaur displays in the world.
Hosting an event at the Museum supports scientific research and educational programs.

Special Viewings
Take your guests on a private tour of our permanent Museum halls and special exhibitions. See the latest temporary exhibition, or meander through galleries featuring massive Mesozoic mega-predators—minus the crowds.
Private Screenings
Reserve the Hayden Planetarium Space Theater—featuring the world’s only high-dynamic range (HDR) planetarium projection system—for an unforgettable tour of the cosmos. Take in a 3-D film in the LeFrak Theater, where a regal Beaux-Arts setting, giant screen, and state-of-the-art sound and projection systems make an indelible impression.
