Bring Your E-Ticket and/or Confirmation Number to the Hunt: After you complete your online ticket purchase, you will see an on-screen “e-ticket” that you should print out and bring to the hunt. If you purchase tickets over the phone, you will receive a confirmation number that you should bring to the hunt. You must have a valid e-ticket or confirmation number to participate in the hunt. You will also receive an e-mail receipt of your purchase. No tickets will be sold at the hunt. If you need to purchase tickets, return to the Hunt Schedule. Remember, your purchase does not include parking. Museum admission is free.

Meeting Place: After you park, take the monorail up to the museum “campus.” In the plaza near where you get off the monorail, look for a group of people and our MC in a burgundy cap that says “Watson Adventures.”

Meeting Time: Please be at the meeting place and ready to hunt at the time indicated on your e-ticket. If you arrive late, you can still hunt, although you might not get the full two hours.

Forming a Team: The hunt is played on teams of up to six people. You can bring your own team and hunt with as few as two on a team, or we can help you band together with kindred spirits at the start of the hunt. Over the years, we’ve found that “pick up” teams often have the most fun, not just because the hunt is a bit easier with more brains working on the questions, but also because the hunters have fun getting to know each other. Your team can have more than six people, but you will not be eligible to win a prize. But maybe that’s not your priority anyway! The main objective is to have fun.

Prizes: Each member of the winning team will receive a prize (it’s a sur-prize). Plus if you fill out a survey after the hunt, you’ll be eligible to win free admission to a future hunt.

Dress: Be comfortable! Don’t carry anything heavy, and definitely wear comfortable shoes!

Directions to the Getty Center: Visit the Hours, Directions and Parking page of the Getty Web site. Remember, you are going to the Getty Center, just off the 405, and not the Villa in Malibu. Please note that we are not affiliated with the museum, so don’t call to ask them questions about the hunt.
