Guide to the Best Discount Offers in Los Angeles

Bargains on Dining, Attractions, Museums, Hotels and more

General

The first place to check for discounted attractions is the local CVB website. LA Inc, the Anaheim CVB and the Long Beach CVB web sites all offer special offers from their members. The AAA also offers many discounts for members traveling to L.A., including discounts on major attractions.

Attractions

These major attractions often offer discount coupons or packages directly from their websites.

• Disneyland
• Universal Studios – For multiple days look at Annual Pass offers.
• Six Flags Magic Mountain – Some Season Passes are good for all Six Flags parks around the world.
• The Queen Mary
  
• Kijubi.com offers discount tickets to many LA Theme parks, even though the discounts may be small.

Some museums also offer dollars-off coupons on their websites. You can also check out this list of Museum Free Days.

Theatre

Goldstar Events offers discounted tickets to many theatre productions in Southern California as well as sporting events, musical events, spectacles, spa discounts and more. Most tickets are half price. Some are free.

StubDog.com is a more recent addition to the discount ticket scene in LA, but is providing some competition for Goldstar in the half-price ticket category, so it's a good idea to bookmark both.

LA Stage Tix offers advance half-price theatre tickets online for L.A. area theatres.

Centre Theatre Group offers a limited number of $20 Hot Tix to some of their productions at the Ahmanson Theatre and Mark Taper Forum at the Music Center or the Kirk Douglas Theatre in Culver City as well as the Passport Membership discount program.
