Good to know
Free. Sign up and complete a demographic profile; invitations are sent by email when you match a screening. Invite-only, so invitations are not guaranteed.

How Free Tickets Work
- Reserve ahead or enter a lottery: Many free tickets are limited and released on a schedule — sometimes weeks ahead, sometimes same-day. Lottery entries (SNL, the National Christmas Tree) open in narrow windows, so check the official page early.
- Show up early: Free admission rarely guarantees a seat. Advance movie screening passes do not guarantee entry, and free concerts fill on a first-come basis. Arriving early is usually the price of free.
- Bring ID and proof: TV tapings, the White House, and the Mint check government-issued photo ID, and some require the name on the ticket to match. Military and fourth-grade park passes also require ID or proof at the gate.
- Confirm on the official site: Taping schedules, free days, and tour availability change seasonally. Each card links to the official provider — check there for the current dates and rules before you travel.
