Bug Fair

Get ready to crawl, fly, and squirm your way into one of LA’s most beloved traditions—Bug Fair is back for its 39th year! This two-day festival is a buzzing celebration of insects and their incredible world. From beetles to butterflies and everything in between, the Natural History Museum turns into a bug lover’s paradise.

Explore an incredible line up of bug-themed exhibitors with everything from handmade jewelry to edible insect snacks (yes, really). Catch live animal presentations that’ll have you squirming in the best way, and don’t miss the stage shows, hands-on activities, and fascinating museum displays pulled straight from the archives. It’s a weekend of science, fun, and more bugs than you can count—perfect for families, nature fans, and curious minds of all ages. Whether you’re a hardcore entomologist or just bug-curious, this event is packed with fun facts, interactive learning, and maybe even a few unexpected six-legged friends.
