Madame Tussauds Hollywood - History, Location & Key Facts 2022

The Basics

Madame Tussauds Hollywood is an excellent rainy-day or family-friendly destination which can be visited independently or as part of a guided tour. Some sightseeing tours of Los Angeles combine a look at celebrity homes with a visit to Madame Tussauds, while buying admission tickets in advance is a great option for time-pressed travelers.

Plan to spend a couple of hours admiring the uncanny, hyper-detailed wax likenesses, which are assembled by a team of sculptors and require approximately 100 hours to create. Don't miss the virtual reality experience featuring a team-based game either.

Things to Know Before You Go

Wheelchairs are available on a first-come, first-served basis; the space is ADA accessible, except for the virtual room for safety reasons.

Madame Tussauds General Admission Ticket with Meal at Hard Rock Cafe

We had a great time. Wax figures look young, but still great pictures and experience. We got the package that included lunch/dinner at Hard Rock, that was awesome as well. You have to choose from a selection but the selection was good and very filling. Great experience!!

Wonderful experience

I decided to take my teenage niece here for her birthday along with my teenage daughters. We had a blast posing and taking pictures with all the celebrity look alikes. The 4-D Marvel movie clip was a success with us. I would recommend this to a family of teens.
