“Tickets are free and will be available to the public through an online lottery starting Tuesday, March 4, 2025, and closing on Monday, March 10, 2025, at 12:00 PM ET,” the release noted. Those interested in attending can find more information about the lottery here.
As in the past, the White House is looking for volunteers for the Easter Egg Roll through an online application. For more information you can check it out here.
Earlier this month, the first lady announced the reopening of the White House to the public for tours and Tuesday, President Trump surprised the first White House tour group of his second presidency.
In a video on YouTube from The Daily Wire, Trump walked around behind a room divider in an underground hallway and told the cheering group that he wanted to welcome them to the exciting tour.
“Is everybody having a good time?” the president asked, and the group replied, “Yes.”
“But just have a good time … you are getting an extra special tour because you are the first one of the year,” he added. “An extra special tour, especially for this guy right here (as Trump pointed to one person in the front row.)”
