The iconic signs of Downtown’s Neon Boneyard are lighting up once more as the museum introduces new nighttime tours of the outdoor exhibition this month.
Though most of the signs themselves will not be electrified, each will be illuminated by dramatic colorful lighting that offers visitors the opportunity to enjoy the tour from a new perspective and away from the sweltering daytime summer temperatures. Additionally, the museum will offer adjusted daytime tour hours this summer to help beat the heat.
The night tours and the new daytime schedule are through Sept. 15. Daytime tours cost $18 and evening tours are $25. Visitors interested in taking a guided tour should pre-register on the Neon Museum’s website. The site will remain open seven days a week, with the La Concha visitors’ center open daily from 8:30 a.m. to 9:30 p.m.
