Promotion cannot be redeemed online and is only valid for in-person visits.   From December 1st through Christmas Eve, any guests ages 55 and older will receive a FREE Platinum Pass with the purchase of a regular Volo Museum admission pass. For the price of only experiencing the Volo Museum, guests will also be able to explore the Titanic Museum and Jurassic Gardens animatronic dinosaur adventure, plus enjoy admission to the Crime and Punishment Sideshow—if they dare. As an added bonus, the Platinum Pass provides two consecutive days of admission. Tickets must be purchased and used between 12/1 and 12/24 to receive the free upgrade. If tickets are not used on or before Christmas Eve, the Platinum Pass upgrade will no longer be valid; however, Volo Museum admission tickets remain valid for one year from the original purchase date. This offer cannot be combined with any other discounts or offers and does not include special events such as the Time Warp Express trolley show.
