The National Park Service updated its fee-free days for 2026, removing Martin Luther King Jr. Day and Juneteenth while including Presidents Day, Memorial Day, Flag Day on June 14, Independence Day weekend, the NPS 110th anniversary, Constitution Day, and Veterans Day. This change emphasizes national holidays and service milestones, alongside higher fees for nonresidents starting January 1 to make access more affordable for Americans. Officials offered no explanation for the specific removals, as the adjustment fits broader public lands updates.
