Clocktower Tours
Public Tour Tickets: $10
Tickets are required for entry; cost is $10 per person and must be reserved in advance.
Dates: 2024 tours are cancelled due to planned clocktower restoration efforts. The clocktower is over 150 years old, so renovations are necessary to maintain the iconic structure; we will announce 2025 dates after renovations are completed.
There is a limit of 20 people at the top of the clocktower at a time. Tickets are available in 30-minute time slots between 1 p.m. and 3 p.m. Please arrive on time; tickets are valid during the time block reserved. Ticket holders who do not show up for their registered time may lose their time slot and are not guaranteed another slot.
Tickets are non-refundable unless cancelled by organizer.
