Celebrate National Park Week 2024 This Week!

Join the National Park Service in welcoming National Park Week 2024! Taking place this year April 20 to April 28, National Park Service parks, programs, and partners across the country are hosting events celebrating America’s national parks and the outdoor experiences they offer. 

This event will be starting strong with free entry to national parks on Saturday, April 20th, and many exciting ways to appreciate the outdoors are on the National Park Service’s calendar throughout the week. Each day’s special theme will highlight the various ways to experience, learn, or get involved with national parks and what we do outside of our park boundaries.

• Saturday, April 20: Discovery. Discover a new place, a new interesting fact, a new activity. Kick off National Park Service and make that new discovery— entrance fees are waived on April 20!
• Sunday, April 21: Volunteers. Individuals can use their time and talents as a volunteer in national parks. Find opportunities to volunteer for a single event or long-term position.
• Monday, April 22: Earth Day. Join the global celebration encouraging education and stewardship of the planet's natural resources. Many parks are hosting volunteer events. People can also find ways to practice conservation at home.
