Final Month to Witness Raptors of the Desert Sky
The clock is ticking! There’s one month left to experience our Raptors of the Desert Sky outdoor flight program before it ends on Monday, September 2 (Labor Day).
Join us daily at 11:30am for an unforgettable encounter with the remarkable raptors in the Museum’s care. This thrilling outdoor flight program offers a rare chance to get up close with these magnificent birds of prey and learn about them from our knowledgeable team.
Here’s how to secure your tickets:
- Tickets are only sold day-of at the Museum’s admissions desk.
- To guarantee a spot, purchase tickets by 10am for the 11:30am showtime. This popular show often sells out quickly!
- Note that the Raptors of the Desert Sky program is occasionally rescheduled to 10:30am due to heat. Double check our website homepage (highdesertmuseum.org) for live updates!
