Every year the National Park Service designates certain dates that admission fees will be waived across all parks in the NPS system. Here are the dates for 2024.
January 15: Martin Luther King, Jr. Day
April 20: First Day of National Park Week
June 19: Juneteenth
August 4: Great American Outdoors Day
September 28: National Public Lands Day
November 11: Veterans Day
In Florida, this applies to the Everglades National Park, Biscayne Bay National Park, Fort Jefferson National Park, Canaveral National Seashore, and Gulf Islands National Seashore.
The waiver is for admission fees only. For Fort Jefferson the free day does not apply to the cost of ferry service to and from Key West.
