About the Passport

In 2026, the United States marks its 250th anniversary. This historic milestone--extraordinary in our lifetimes--provides the ideal moment to come together, better understand our shared past, and renew our commitment to the pursuit of "a more perfect union."

We invite you to explore the outsized role Virginians played in securing American independence, and our journey since, by visiting the many museums and historic sites of this Commonwealth. The Virginia 250 Passport features dozens of museums and historic sites across the Commonwealth.

Pick up a Passport at:

  • A Signature Passport Site: Monticello, Virginia Museum of History & Culture, Colonial Williamsburg, Jamestown-Yorktown Foundation, or Mount Vernon
  • The VA250 Mobile Museum
  • Select VA250 events
  • Virginia Tourism Welcome Centers across the Commonwealth

How to Get Stamps and Discounts

When you visit a 250 Passport Site, ask for their official stamp to document your visit in your passport booklet. Once you have received at least one passport stamp, get a 15% discount on admission at 250 Passport Sites. One admission discount per passport holder; one discount per site. 250 Passport Discount cannot be combined with other offers, but guests purchasing tickets through other offers may still receive a stamp.
