For 25 years, MOPOP has cranked the dial on culture—amplifying the creators, rebels, and moments that move us. We’re not here to quietly archive culture; we’re here to shine a spotlight on it and throw a party 25 years in the making. Pop Culture is who we are: past, present, future, and probably in some wild multiverse, too!
On June 21, it all comes together as we celebrate a quarter century of unforgettable noise with a full day of live music, iconic artifacts, untold stories, and deep cuts from the vault. This is so much more than nostalgia—it’s a living mixtape of where we’ve been and, more importantly, where we’re headed.
MOPOP turns another year older, and you get the gift: full-day admission plus special birthday programming for just $25.
MOPOP was built for the bold, by the obsessed. Since the early days of EMP, we’ve championed the curious, empowered the next generation of trailblazers, and transformed pop culture into a portal for connection, creativity, and change.
Born from a passion for the limitless possibilities of human imagination, MOPOP is where music legends echo through time, where science fiction, horror, and fantasy are not just genres but cultural blueprints, and where games, fashion, and film are celebrated as the art forms they truly are.
As we celebrate a quarter century of culture, we are reimagining our mission to activate the world-shaping power of pop culture through participative experiences, discovery, and play. We’re expanding with boundary-pushing exhibitions, providing a platform to amplify PNW voices through musical events like Sound Off!, and deepening community roots through an array of educational programming—because the future of pop culture doesn’t live behind glass. It’s alive, evolving, and just getting started.
Here’s to the next 25 years of disrupting, imagining, and creating the culture of tomorrow—together. Help fuel the future of MOPOP's exhibitions, programming, preservation, and more. It's your passion that powers what's next! Make an impact today by becoming a MOPOP member or by making a gift.
