Closed to the public on all Mondays (including most federal holidays), except for Martin Luther King, Jr. Day and Presidents’ Day. Closed entirely on both days of Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur, Thanksgiving, New Year's Day, and the first two days of Passover (April 7 & 8, 2012). Early closure (3:00PM) on the eves of Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur, on Christmas Eve (December 24), and on the first night of Passover (April 6, 2012).  

On all days, ticket sales and admittance to the Museum cease half an hour before closing time. 

In recognition of Shabbat (the Jewish Sabbath), tickets cannot be purchased within the Museum on Saturdays.  We strongly recommend that you obtain Saturday tickets in advance; you may do so here (or you may purchase them at the Museum on an alternate day of the week, during regular hours of operation).  A limited number of tickets will also be available for purchase on the actual Saturday of your visit in the Bourse Building (around the corner from the Museum on 5th Street) and at the Independence Visitor Center, located at Market and 6^th Streets (just one block away from the Museum).
