Frequent visitors, seniors, military, and others may save money on entrance fees with an America the Beautiful Pass.
Do NOT purchase a site pass now if you have a valid America the Beautiful annual or lifetime pass OR are planning to get one.
Each pass is issued to one person (the pass holder) who must be present and show valid photo identification each time the pass is used. U.S. citizen or resident identification includes a U.S. driver's license, U.S. passport, or U.S. permanent resident card.
The park has two units: The Laboratory Complex and Glenmont Grounds (the estate of Thomas and Mina Edison). Purchase of this pass does NOT guarantee entrance to the Glenmont Mansion. If you wish to tour the mansion, please book the Glenmont Estate Tour up to 7 days before your arrival date.
You are purchasing a digital site pass that is valid only for weekly or annual entrance fees at Thomas Edison National Historical Park.
The park requires all visitors except pass holders and children under 16 years of age to pay an entrance fee. This fee covers unlimited entry for one pass holder for 7 consecutive days, beginning on the start date you select.
Connectivity is limited in areas of Thomas Edison National Historical Park. Please download this pass to your mobile device or print a hard copy before arriving at the park and be prepared to show it.
Passes are non-transferrable, non-refundable, will not be replaced if lost or stolen, and will be void if altered or reproduced.
