If you're planning an April Break visit to the Statue of Liberty, don't forget to make a reservation to enter the monument.  

Here's the Scoop:
A "time pass" reservation system has been implemented by the National Park Service for visitors who plan on entering the statue. (Secondary screening on Liberty Island is required for those entering the monument).

Time passes are available at no cost from the ferry company with the purchase of a ferry ticket. Advance tickets can be ordered (at least 48 hours) by calling the ferry company at: 1-866-STATUE4 or on-line at: www.statuereservations.com

MONUMENT ACCESS PASS INCLUDES:

• Access into the Statue of Liberty.
  
• The presentation of talks by Park Rangers providing historical background in the Statue of Liberty National Monument Museum & on the observation deck atop the pedestal.
  
• Views of the unique design and construction of the Statue of Liberty National Monument with an insiders view.
  
• A spectacular 360-degree view of New York harbor from the observation balcony.
  

Access to the interior of the Statue of Liberty National Monument is available by reservation only.

A limited number of time passes are available from the ferry company each day on a first-come, first-served basis. Time passes are not needed to visit the grounds of Liberty Island or the Ellis Island immigration museum.  It's recommended you arrive for the Ferry 2 hours before your monument reservation.
