We take our visitors’ health and safety very seriously. The Pennsylvania Trolley Museum has made the decision to cancel or postpone events through May to help prevent the spread of COVID-19. Events affected include Bunny Trolley, Scout Merit Badge Day, Daniel Tiger’s Weekend, and private rentals or events.
We strongly recommend that all visitors continue checking our website for additional museum updates.
Did you purchase tickets to one of the events?
Your ticket purchase will be fully refunded within 7-10 business days.
Are other activities canceled at the museum?
The Western Pennsylvania Trolley Meet scheduled for June 26-27, the Truck Show scheduled for June 27, and the Car Show scheduled for June 28, have been canceled.
The Pennsylvania Trolley Museum will remain temporarily closed for an extended period. Once an opening date is set, we will be sure to update our webpage and announce the dates on our social media pages. We thank you for your patience during these difficult times!
We are still booking field trips, birthdays, room rentals and tours for later in the year. For parties and rentals, please email visitorservices@patrolley.org. For field trips or group visits, please email education@patrolley.org. For questions about Scout Day, please email assistant@patrolley.org.
**If you have previously booked a birthday party, field-trip or rental, please know that the museum fully understands if you decide to cancel. For those who cancel, the museum will refund you your full deposit amount.
