Permits & Reservations

No Special Use Permits Issued Until Further Notice

Following guidance from the CDC and state and local public health authorities, special park use permits will not be issued until further notice. This includes permits to use the theater or hold special events on the grounds. The visitor center and grounds are open for regular use. Please refer to the superintendent's compendium for details.

 

Large groups visit Chamizal National Memorial with a special use permit.

 

Picnic Areas

Covered tables, grills, and open spaces are available to visitors for picnic and play. For everyday use and small groups, no permits or reservations are necessary. Groups of 50 or more must obtain a Special Use Permit at least two weeks in advance of their requested date.

Camping

No camping is allowed on Memorial grounds. Some nearby attractions may provide camping opportunities.
