Historic Sundays

Historic Sundays is back giving everyone living in Scotland free access to our sites on the first Sunday of every month from October 2025 to March 2026.

Never visited one of our sites before? Now is your chance

We want everyone to enjoy a great day out at our sites, because we believe history belongs to us all! Whether you’ve not visited before due to cost, or you feel history isn’t for you, this is your opportunity to visit some of the most iconic sites across Scotland. Join us on the first Sunday of every month*, until March 2026, and get free entry to sites near you.

This offer is online only, and tickets must be booked in advance. Proof of address may be required on arrival.

Tickets for Sunday 7 December will be available soon. If you don’t get tickets this time round more will be available next month. Keep an eye on this page for participating sites and to book your Historic Sundays tickets.

* Our January Historic Sunday will be on Sunday 11 January 2026 rather than the first Sunday of the month which falls during the festive period.
