Photo Booth Museum Houston by Photomatica is listed at 2103 Lyons Ave, Houston, TX, United States. Booth Beacon has not confirmed the exact machine model at this address yet, so the hardware row on this page stays blank until someone reports it.
The booth is currently listed as working. No opening hours are published for this listing, so treat the host venue's own hours as the limit. Per-strip pricing is not published for this listing — the price card on the machine is the authority. It takes cash; card payment has not been confirmed here, so bring notes or coins.
This entry is compiled from chron.com and was last checked on Oct 8, 2026. If the booth has moved, changed price, or stopped working, use the report link on this page so the next visitor gets the correction.
Most people find this place by searching "photomatica houston", "photobooth museum Houston" or "Houston photo booth museum" — it is the same address. Photomatica Houston is the Photo Booth Museum Houston at 2103 Lyons Ave, operated by vintage photo booth company Photomatica (the team behind the Photo Booth Museums in San Francisco and Los Angeles).
It is not a single machine in the corner of a bar. The museum is a room built around several restored vintage analog photo booths, and it is the largest photo booth museum in Texas — Photomatica's third Photo Booth Museum and its biggest to date.
The Houston museum opened on June 5, 2026, on Lyons Ave just outside downtown in the Fifth Ward / Near Northside arts corridor, next door to Meow Wolf Houston. If you are already planning a Meow Wolf visit, the Photomatica booths are the easiest add-on in the city: same block, no second drive.
The booths here are genuine analog machines: each strip is exposed and developed in chemistry inside the booth, so there is a wait of a few minutes before it drops and no digital copy afterwards. The status, hours and payment rows above are the live listing for this address; the Houston city guide and photo booth tour link the rest of the city's analog machines — Spring Street Studios, FLATS on Montrose and Amy's Ice Creams among them — if you want to make a day of it.
