This Father’s Day, families in the Los Angeles area have a new option for celebrating dad: a visit to the Martial Arts History Museum in Glendale, California. The museum announced it will offer free admission for all fathers on Sunday, June 21, 2026, from 11:00 AM to 6:00 PM.
The museum, designed by a Disney artist and spanning 8,000 square feet, claims to be the only facility of its kind in the world. It offers an immersive journey through Asian cultural history, the birth of MMA, and the artistic evolution of martial arts. Exhibits include martial arts movie props, Japanese samurai artifacts, a history of anime, and even an authentic workout item used by Bruce Lee.
Located at 201 N. Brand Blvd., B100, Glendale, CA 91203, the museum has become a cultural landmark, drawing celebrity guests such as Keanu Reeves, Danny Trejo, Marisa Tomei, Steve Oedekerk, and Duff McKagan. Unlike other Los Angeles museums that often require navigating heavy traffic and paying expensive parking fees, the Martial Arts History Museum offers a stress-free alternative. Convenient parking is available at 222 N. Orange, with the first 90 minutes free in the tower.
Admission is free for fathers on Father’s Day, while regular admission is $12 for adults and $5 for children. The museum’s hours are 11:00 AM to 6:00 PM. For more information, visit MAmuseum.com.
The museum describes itself as an educational and cultural facility dedicated to preserving the history, art, and legacy of martial arts. Through unique exhibits, media, and historical artifacts from China, Japan, Korea, the Philippines, and beyond, the museum highlights the positive influence martial arts has had on global culture and film. This Father’s Day offer provides an opportunity for families to explore this unique institution without the cost of admission for dad, making it an affordable outing.
The announcement underscores the museum’s role as a community resource, offering an alternative to more commercial attractions. By waiving admission for fathers, the museum aims to honor them while introducing visitors to the rich history of martial arts. The event also highlights the museum’s accessibility, with free parking for the first 90 minutes, reducing barriers for families.
As Father’s Day approaches, the Martial Arts History Museum’s offer stands out as a meaningful way to spend time together, learning about a discipline that has influenced entertainment, sports, and culture worldwide. The museum’s collection, ranging from ancient artifacts to pop culture memorabilia, provides something for all ages, making it a suitable destination for a family outing.
