Click here to buy your tickets online. Due to security measures at the Gateway Arch, all visitors to the Arch must pass through an airport style security checkpoint. No weapons-including firearms, knives, pepper spray, mace or electronic weapons-are allowed.
Throughout construction, the capacity of the entire Gateway Arch facility is limited. Each guest planning to enter the Gateway Arch is required to have EITHER a Journey to the Top ticket OR an Arch Entry-Only ticket to be allowed access to the facility.
Please Note: The Museum of Westward Expansion is closed. Until the new museum opens the educational programs and exhibits on westward expansion will be available at the Old Courthouse throughout construction.
Although you can purchase tickets in person at the Old Courthouse for the day of the event, purchasing them online reserves your seat and may save you time. During summer and school holidays, lines may become long throughout the day, so we recommend you arrive early to increase your chance of purchasing a tram ticket. Groups of 20 or more may call in advance for reservations.
