Howard W. Cannon Aviation Museum

The Howard W. Cannon Aviation Museum sits inside Harry Reid International Airport at 25 Wayne Newton Blvd in Las Vegas, 89119, and it is free to visit. This is a science museum built around aviation exhibits, historical displays, and self-guided tours, so families passing through the airport or making a dedicated trip can walk through at their own pace rather than joining a scheduled tour group.

The age range listed is 0 to 18, broken into brackets of 0 to 3, 4 to 12, and 13 to 18. Because that span covers the full 0 to 18 window, it reflects this directory's default age listing rather than a specific posted policy for the museum, so there is effectively no age restriction implied by the data beyond the museum being appropriate for all ages as a self-guided exhibit space.

Hours are listed as open 24 hours every day of the week, which makes sense for a museum housed inside a functioning airport terminal rather than a standalone building with its own opening and closing schedule; access in practice will depend on the airport's own security and terminal access rules, which are separate from museum operating hours. The museum runs year round.

Because it sits inside Southern Nevada's main airport, this is best understood as a free, self-guided stop for aviation history rather than a staffed or programmed youth activity with instructors or classes. Special needs accommodations are listed, including wheelchair accessibility, sensory-friendly programming, and inclusive programs, which is useful for families weighing whether a trip to the airport terminal works for a child who is sensitive to crowds or noise.

For questions about current exhibits or accessing the museum within the terminal, call (702) 455-7968 or visit the Clark County parks and recreation cultural division page for the museum, since airport layout and security screening can affect how and when families reach the exhibit space.
