American Prohibition Museum Tickets

The American Prohibition Museum in Savannah takes you inside one of America's most fascinating periods. This dedicated museum explores the 1920s-1930s alcohol ban through carefully curated exhibits that tell the complete story of the Temperance Movement and its unexpected consequences. You can explore the galleries at your own pace with a standard entry ticket or join a 45-minute guided tour for deeper historical insight.

The museum recreates the world of speakeasies, flappers, and bootleggers that emerged during Prohibition. Interactive displays introduce you to the key figures on both sides of the debate, from temperance advocates to organised crime leaders who capitalised on the alcohol ban. Each gallery showcases how this era fundamentally changed American society, from fashion trends to the rise of jazz culture.

Highlights

  • Detailed exhibits chronicling the Temperance Movement and the push for a "dry" America
  • Interactive displays featuring bootleggers, crime leaders, and temperance advocates
  • Recreated speakeasy environments with authentic period artifacts
  • Fashion displays showing flapper culture and 1920s rebellion
  • Audio-visual elements that transport you into Prohibition-era nightlife
  • Optional 35-minute cocktail class to learn classic drink recipes (when available)

Plan Your Visit to American Prohibition Museum

The museum is fully wheelchair accessible and welcomes visitors of all ages, though parental guidance is recommended due to content about crime and alcohol history. Photography is permitted without flash throughout the exhibits. No outside food or drinks are allowed, but you can purchase beverages at the museum's speakeasy-style bar.

If you choose the guided tour option, arrive on time for your scheduled 45-minute session. The museum works well as part of a broader exploration of Savannah's historic district walking tours, where you can discover more stories from the city's colourful past. For those interested in Savannah's other historical attractions, consider combining your visit with Savannah's trolley tours to see the wider historic district.
