2025 Spring Garden Tours Schedule Adjustment

Spring Garden Tours previously scheduled for Saturday, April 5, 2025, have been rescheduled for Sunday, April 6, 2025. This decision has been made out of an abundance of caution and to ensure the safety of all within proximity to public demonstrations planned near the White House on Saturday, April 5, 2025.

The White House is working closely with the United States Secret Service and National Park Service to safely accommodate all ticket holders for the 2025 Spring Garden Tours, which will continue to be held on Sunday, April 6, 2025, with the following adjustment. All previously allocated tickets for Saturday, April 5, will be honored on Sunday, April 6, between 10:00 AM and 2:30 PM (regardless of the original Saturday time slot printed on the ticket).

Ticket holders for Sunday, April 6, should plan to continue to adhere to the time slot noted on their ticket(s).
