PLAN AHEAD
Visiting Liberty Island is one of the most rewarding experiences of any trip to New York City. However, visitors who wish to enter the museum, pedestal or crown must secure reservations. For over a decade, the National Park Service has implemented a reservation policy. The reservation system is much different than how past generations accessed the Statue of Liberty. The National Park Service strongly recommends making advanced ticket reservations. Advanced reservations allow visitors to secure their desired level of access and also eliminate the need to wait in line to purchase tickets. Crown tickets are available by advanced reservation only.
