The Museo de la Felicidad of Madrid enters the Christmas season expanding its regular programming with new activities to raise spirits and share laughter. Until January 18, 2026, the space adds special proposals designed for all audiences and easy to fit into the winter agenda. All activities are included with your ticket, so get yours here.
In just two years, the Museum of Happiness has received nearly 200,000 visitors and has established itself as a space where culture and wellness intertwine. In addition to its immersive tour, it has promoted workshops and activities that have reached schoolchildren and groups at risk of exclusion, reinforcing its educational and social dimension. This Christmas, this approach translates into new temporary experiences that complete the visit and reinforce its participatory dimension.
Special activities at the Museum of Happiness this Christmas
During this holiday season, the Museum of Happiness adds to its usual tour a special Christmas program that is included with admission until January 18. From Monday to Friday, at 12:00 noon and 6:00 pm, the space is filled with live proposals that change every day and that add a lot to the experience at the Museum of Happiness.
The main novelty is the “Risódromo Jajaland”, a group experience designed to provoke and spread collective laughter through games and guided dynamics.
In addition, micro-workshops have also been programmed, such as “Aromas that paint smiles”, which explores the relationship between smell and happy memories; the Disco Feliz “NaviDance”, with Christmas music and simple tests; and different games inspired by viral challenges, adapted to the universe of the museum.
What will you find in MüF all year round?
Where are the happiest people on the planet? What hormones are responsible for our moods? What makes music transmit emotions? All these questions (and many more) are answered throughout the tour of MüF, the Museum of Happiness.
Every corner of the space has been created to learn about how to be happier: it is a walk through 600 m2 where you can experience happiness through its spaces such as the laughter machine (the ‘laughdrome’), the happiness ATM or the Auditorium, where you will attend a ‘Happy Magic’ show by the magician Miguel de Lucas. In addition, you can write on their wall the things that make you happy and inspire others to implement activities that make them feel good. Whether it’s calling a loved one, giving a gift to someone, or celebrating by having a drink with your friends.
Thanks to all the explanatory panels you will better understand how our body chemistry works, the different hormones that cause us pleasure, joy and happiness and how this results in health and well-being.
MüF is designed to guide visitors through an immersive experience where positive emotions take center stage. Visitors will leave the museum knowing the history of happiness, its curiosities and its effects on our body and our life.
The machines of the Museum of Happiness created to make you smile
Inside MüF, more than 20 immersive experiences are part of this unusual museum. All are sensory, interactive and educational, such as the laughter machine.
But it’s not all about machines; the different rooms will show you other ways to get the high of happiness.
For example, one of them proposes doing something you have never done before or perhaps only did as a child, demonstrating that doing something for the first time generates dopamine and excitement.
More than a museum, MüF is a necessary pause in the midst of the Christmas rhythm: a place to remember that happiness is not in the extraordinary, but in laughing, sharing and letting yourself be carried away by a sincere smile.
