The Getty Center in Los Angeles has announced a temporary closure beginning March 15, 2027, to undergo its most extensive renovation since opening in 1997. The modernization project aims to enhance the visitor experience across the campus through a series of facility upgrades and reimagined spaces.
This strategic renovation is timed to ensure the museum is fully updated and operational before the global spotlight turns to Los Angeles for the 2028 Summer Olympics. By completing these significant infrastructure improvements, the Getty positions itself as a premier cultural destination for the massive influx of international visitors expected for the games.
