The compensation we receive and other factors, such as your location, may impact what ads and links appear on our site, and how, where, and in what order ads and links appear. While we strive to provide a wide range of offers, our site does not include information about every product or service that may be available to you. We strive to keep our information accurate and up-to-date, but some information may not be current. So, your actual offer terms from an advertiser may be different than the offer terms on this site.

When you click on that hyperlink or button, you may be directed to the credit card issuer’s website where you can review the terms and conditions for your selected offer. Each advertiser is responsible for the accuracy and availability of its ad offer details, but we attempt to verify those offer details. We have partnerships with advertisers such as American Express, Brex, Capital One, Chase, Citi, Wells Fargo and Discover. We also include editorial content to educate consumers about financial products and services. Some of that content may also contain ads, including links to advertisers’ sites, and we may be paid on those ads or links.

Update: One or more card offers in this post are no longer available. Check our Hot Deals for the latest offers.

Museum lovers rejoice!

If you have a Bank of America or Merrill Lynch debit or credit card, you can get free admission into over 150 participating museums and cultural centers on the first full weekend of each month.

Free Access To US Museums Zoos Aquariums More This Weekend With Your Bank Of America Card — A Visit to the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City Costs Between $12 and $25 for Adults. But Bank of America and Merrill Lynch Cardholders Get Free Admission This Weekend!

I’ll show you how to get in free to places like the Thinkery in Austin, Texas, and the Chabot Space & Science Center in Oakland, California.

How to Get Free Admission This Weekend

Link: Bank of America’s “Museums on Us”

Link: List of Participating Museums

The Museums on Us program promotes culture, art, and science by giving folks free entry into more than 150 museums and cultural centers nationwide. You just need a Bank of America (or Merrill Lynch) debit or credit card!

Qualifying cards include:

Just show your card at the door along with a photo ID.

Free entry is only good for Bank of America or Merrill Lynch cardholders. So if you’re visiting with others, they’ll need to bring their own card or pay full price.

Thanks to Million Mile Secrets reader Sharon for pointing out that free admission does not necessarily mean you’ll have access to the entire museum. Some museums charge additional fees for different exhibits. So research your museum before you go!

This is a great opportunity for families and friends looking for ways to save on entertainment. If you’re in Washington, DC, you could stop by the Newseum. And in Portland, Oregon, you can visit the Portland Children’s Museum.

Find out if there’s a participating location near you!
