In order to improve your visit to Independence National Historical Park, you now need a timed and dated ticket for your tour of Independence Hall (where the Declaration of Independence and U.S. Constitution were signed). These tickets streamline your visit and give you more time to see Philadelphia. No tickets are required before March 1. You will need a ticket from March 1 to December 31, except July 4; Thanksgiving and Christmas Day when no tickets are required.
Walk-up tickets are available for free on the day of your visit at the Independence Visitor Center at 6th and Market Streets starting at 8:30 am. The first tour starts at 9:00 a.m. You may request tickets for any available time, on the day of the visit only. You have the greatest choice of times during the first two hours of the day (8:30 to 10:30 a.m.). Please plan your visit early during the peak season.
One person may request up to ten (10) tickets for a family or small group. The rest of the family or group does not need to be present when the tickets are picked up. For larger families, one person for each ten (10) people must come to pick up tickets. Everyone in the group needs a ticket, even infants.
Organized tours or school groups may obtain tickets for their entire group once the group is in the Independence Visitor Center. Up to 80 tickets will be given to one teacher or guide. While the teacher or guide is in line for tickets, we recommend that the rest of the group view the exhibits, see the movies, use the restrooms or visit the store.
