FAQs

Is it better to drive or take public transportation?
You can drive to the Kennedy Center where there is onsite parking but public transportation will be easier and less expensive. Simply hop on the Metro to the Foggy Bottom/George Washington University station. From there, you'll have a short walk or you can take the free shuttle that leaves every 15 minutes.
Can I eat at the Kennedy Center?
You'll have your choice of both fine and casual dining courtesy of two onsite eateries. Enjoy an array of international dishes for dinner and Sunday brunch at the Roof Terrace Restaurant while everything from salad and sandwiches for lunch to fish and pasta for dinner are on the menu at the KC Café.
