If you plan on experiencing the March 31st Service, remember that, unfortunately, the metro does not open until 7:00 am, so you must prepare for another mode of transportation.


Parking can also be very tricky around the Memorial, so remember to plan ahead to find adequate parking.


To accommodate everybody, you will have three options to sit:


  • Some chairs will be placed at the Lincoln Memorial

  • You can sit on the step of the Lincoln Memorial

  • If you bring a blanket or a folding chair, the surrounding lawn is a great option


Some accommodations are made for people in wheelchairs or hearing impaired; check the link below for all the options.
