National Underground Railroad Freedom Center Member Discount

Join Today for Member Discounts

A Membership is more than free admission to three museums. It’s more than free parking. It’s more than the deepest discounts on special exhibitions. It’s an experience shared together. It’s the dinner table conversation about dinosaurs sparked by coming face-to-face with prehistoric beasts in our Dinosaur Hall. It’s the holiday tradition of bringing out-of-town family to see the Duke Energy Holiday Trains. It’s making lasting memories with family and friends.
