Presidential Inaugural 2013

The 57th Presidential Inauguration Swearing-in Ceremonies will be held at the United States Capitol on Monday, January 21, 2013.  For additional information, please visit http://inaugural.senate.gov and check back frequently since it will be updated as more information becomes available.

Each Congressional office receives a limited number of tickets for the Swearing-In Ceremony, and my office can only seek to accommodate requests from residents of New York's 1st Congressional District.  Other inaugural events, such as Inaugural Balls, are not organized by the Congress and no tickets are available through my office.

Please fill out the form below to request tickets to the Presidential Inauguration scheduled for January 21, 2013. I do not yet know how many tickets my office will receive.  Following receipt of tickets to my office, they will be distributed via a selection lottery. Please note that tickets are for standing-room only. The inauguration is an outdoor event and long lines should be expected. Should demand be sufficient, my office plans to make arrangements for a viewing space indoors so my constituents without tickets can watch the ceremony on television.

Due to high demand and the limited number of tickets available, requests are limited to a maximum of TWO. The lottery will be conducted and tickets will be allocated on December 14, 2012. No requests will be accepted after that date.  Tickets will not be mailed and must be picked up in person at my office after they have been assigned.

Thank you for your interest in the 2013 Presidential Inauguration. Please understand that submitting this request does not guarantee you will receive a ticket. Requests from outside New York’s 1st Congressional District will not be considered or acknowledged. Please ONLY use this form if you are a resident of Eastern Suffolk County, New York. If you are not sure that Tim Bishop is your Congressman, please use this form to determine your representation.
