Okay so I wanted to see that fancy Dior show in New York everyone’s talking about. First thing I did? Jumped on my phone and typed “Dior show New York tickets price” right into Google. Tons of results popped up but I clicked the first legit-looking official one.
Almost choked when I saw the standard ticket cost! Over $40 bucks per person for basic entry, that’s before any fees or taxes. Felt pretty steep for walking around looking at dresses. Checked out what’s included – you get to see the fashion stuff obviously and some historical pieces, but still.
My cheap ticket hunt went like this:
- Checked weekdays vs weekends: Nope, same price every dang day
- Looked for student deals: Only one museum website had student discounts but you gotta show ID
- Searched discount codes: Went through coupon sites but found zero working codes
- Group tickets? The official site offered like $2 off per person if you brought 10+ people… who has 9 friends into fashion exhibits?
Almost gave up when I remembered museum memberships sometimes get you in free. Checked the host museums member page – BAM! If you’re a member at either museum hosting, you can just walk right in. Best part? Basic membership costs about the same as two tickets, but covers whole year entry. Now that’s a proper deal.
Final move? Texted my museum-obsessed friend Julie who always has memberships everywhere. Sure enough she had one at the main hosting spot and said “just come with me Saturday morning.” Perfect solution – only cost me a coffee for her afterwards! Saved my cash and still got fancy photos for the feed.
