Interested in being able to explore the new terminal before it officially opens to passengers? Here’s your chance.
The public is invited to get a first look at the new terminal at Pittsburgh International Airport during a special Community Open House. The event will be held Saturday, Oct. 11, from noon to 7 p.m. Registration is required and will open next week.
“We’ve said from the beginning that this new state-of-the-art terminal is built for Pittsburgh, by Pittsburgh and we are excited to open the doors to the public to tour,” Allegheny County Airport Authority CEO Christina Cassotis said. “This is the front door to the region and the public should be very proud of what this community has accomplished. From the excellent work of our local union trades to public and governmental support at all levels, this amazing community has been a key partner in helping to build the future of the region and lead the industry.”

The Open House is the latest in a series of events leading up to opening day this fall. The Open House follows the Sept. 20 Public Trial – where over 2,000 members of the public will test the new terminal’s systems and processes – and an Oct. 3 gala for partners and organizations involved in building the project.
This Open House offers a unique opportunity for community members to explore the state-of-the-art facility before it is fully operational. Visitors will be able to explore at their own pace and learn about the new terminal.
There will be a variety of activities for all ages with multiple community partners including the Children’s Museum of Pittsburgh, Kamin Science Center, Tree Pittsburgh and the Airport Authority’s xBridge program, offering interactive, educational and hands-on activations.
The Open House is free and open to all ages. Registration will allow for participants to choose time slots.
