Free Day

All non-member visitors to The Huntington on the first Thursday of the month (Free Day) must have a ticket.

• Tickets are free and must be reserved online for PRINT-AT-HOME or MOBILE DELIVERY; tickets are not available onsite or via email
• Tickets are available the first day of each month at 9 a.m. preceding the month you wish to visit. (for example, if you wish to visit on August Free Day, you may reserve tickets July 1).
• All visitors - including infants - need a ticket. Members do not need a ticket.
• Your ticket will be scanned for entry and may not be used for any other month.
• Up to 5 tickets per household; those reserving more than 5 tickets will have all additional tickets invalidated at entry.
• Free Day hours are 10 a.m.–5 p.m.
• You may not purchase regular admission tickets on Free Day.
• Due to the popularity of Free Day, tickets are typically fully reserved in 1-2 minutes. If you are not able to get tickets one month, you are welcome to try again another month.
• Food and picnicking is not permitted on the grounds, however, there is a picnic area adjacent to the parking lot where you may eat food you've brought before you enter. See dining for onsite food service options.
• Tea Room reservations are accepted on Free Days via OpenTable. Bring your OpenTable reservation confirmation to the admission windows for check-in.
