Description
Enjoy sweeping views of Washington, D.C. while guest carillonneurs play free concerts of space themed music from 5PM-6:30PM on the carillon's 53 bells. Participate in space themed activities to earn your junior ranger badge!
We recommend bringing lawn chairs or blankets to enjoy the performance from the lawns surrounding the Carillon. As an outdoor event and guests are encouraged to plan accordingly.
Free parking at the memorial is extremely limited. Several paid parking options are available within walking distance of the Carillon on a first-come, first-served basis. It is recommended that guests use a form of public transportation. The D.C. Metro system, National Mall Circulator Loop bus, and various micromobility services (bicycles, scooters) offer convenient ways to reach the Carillon.
