Timed Admission

Timed Admission tickets are valid for the designated day of admission. Your Timed Admission ticket provides access to the Admiral Nimitz Gallery and the George H. W. Bush Gallery. Although you may select your admission time, once in the Gallery, you may enjoy the exhibits until the Museum complex closes at 5:00 PM.

Doors open at 9:00 AM and close at 5:00 PM. The last entry is at 3:30 PM. Visitors purchasing tickets after 3:00 PM should expect an abbreviated visit.

The Memorial Courtyard and Japanese Garden of Peace are open daily until 5:00 PM free of charge. You may enjoy these at your leisure until the complex closes.
