I'm sorry but this museum is so tired, it hasn't changed in many years since I visited or if it has those sections are closed. The entrance is and remains uninspired with that grey plaza. There is no art on the walls it is the same white paint throughout, broken escalators on our visit, and small entrances to the exhibits often overcrowded as there is no staff directing people. We did enjoy the one staff member talking about owls. The photography exhibit was good. The gift shop is large.
Some of the exhibits are undergoing renovations. However, the ones that remain open are still enough to spend a few hours learning about the natural history of British Columbia. đ€©
I really enjoyed the titles of some of the information paragraphs. They use catchy phrases to hook our attention. đ€đ

Great exhibitions as usual! I went during family day weekend when they had free admission for under 19's. It was very busy but lots of fun!
Lots of the museum was closed/didn't have anything set up, but even so, touring the exhibits that they did have took us around 2 hours! Very interesting stuff, I love mammoths!!!

Free during a holiday. However, you will see a lot of people and their kids running from left to right or screaming. Be prepared.
Lovely place, otherwise.

Used to be a good museum but now itâs garbage. We paid $11 for a ticket and walked around, then got a refund because we were extremely dissatisfied. Not the staffâs fault but the people who decided to demolish half the exhibits. Extremely shameful and disappointing. Do not waste your time. Also, the ship exhibit, mining exhibit, Indigenous exhibit, and euro-Canadian exhibit are all gone.
All the staff is extremely friendly and fun to interact with, especially the gift shop attendants and security. We had a lot of fun viewing the exhibits. The exhibits were very interactive which is great for making the museum more fun for kids. The gift shops have a good variety of pricing to suit all peoples budgets.
