July 10, 2024 - 7:43 pm
The Neon Museum has announced that it will be closing during the day because of the extreme heat, with temperatures needing to fall below a certain threshold before the museum will open its doors.
The museum was temporary closed on Wednesday, with customers with preexisting tickets able to reschedule or get a refund, according to its website.
Once temperatures fall below 110 degrees, the museum will reopen, a spokesperson said. This week, this has usually been around 8:30 to 9 p.m., the spokesperson added.
“We do monitor the temperature at the boneyard,” the spokesperson said. A note on the website said that this is to ensure the safety of customers and staff.
Customers are encouraged to monitor temperatures before they arrive through a link on the museum’s website.
