Tickets to the 56th Inaugural Ceremonies will be provided free of charge and distributed through Members of the 111th Congress. The Joint
Congressional Committee on Inaugural Ceremonies does not provide tickets to
the public. Members of the public interested in attending the Inaugural
Ceremonies should contact their Member of Congress or U.S. Senators to
request tickets. The public should also be aware that no website or other ticket outlet
actually has inaugural swearing-in tickets to sell, regardless of what they
may claim. Tickets will not be distributed to Congressional offices until
the week before the inauguration and will require in-person pick-up. “Any website or ticket broker claiming that they have inaugural tickets is
simply not telling the truth,” said Howard Gantman, Staff Director for the
Joint Congressional Committee on Inaugural Ceremonies. “Tickets for the
swearing-in of President-elect are all provided through members of Congress,
and the President-elect and Vice President-elect through the Presidential
Inaugural Committee. We urge the public to view any offers of tickets for
sale with great skepticism.”
