Georgetown House Tour

We are thrilled to announce that the 91st Georgetown House Tour will take place on Saturday, April 20, 2024, 11 a.m. – 5 p.m.

Early-bird tickets are available now until midnight the night before the tour.  Tickets purchased in advance online are $60 each, and tickets purchased the day of the tour are $65.

Since 1931, St. John’s Episcopal Church has organized and hosted the Georgetown House Tour to raise funds for ministry and outreach. From day one, the House Tour has been an important part of enabling the mission of St John’s in the greater Georgetown community.

Each year the Georgetown House Tour features a number of Georgetown’s most beautiful homes–learn about the 2022 tour from ABC 7 (WJLA). Houses are within easy walking distance and can be visited at your own pace and in your preferred order. The tour price includes a House Tour brochure full of useful information that serves also as your admission to each home, and includes a map of the houses along with historic information and background on each house.

Also included in your ticket price is a not-to-be-missed Parish Tea.

The Parish Tea is held in Blake Hall at historic St. John’s Church, 3240 O St. NW. This lovely tea tradition features homemade tea sandwiches and sweets. You may walk in at any time between 1:30 pm and 4:30 pm to delight in what the parish volunteers are serving!

The Patrons’ Party, held the Wednesday before the House Tour, is another annual Georgetown tradition. Our very own Frida Burling created the Patron’s Party sixteen years ago to raise additional funds for St. John’s ministries. The first Patron’s Party was hosted by author Kitty Kelley and since then many of our wonderful Georgetowners have opened their homes to host this wonderful party.

You can become a Corporate Sponsor, be an Advertiser in the House Tour Magazine, inquire about our Patrons Party, or get additional information by emailing georgetownhousetour@gmail.com or calling St. John’s Church at (202) 338-1796.  We look forward to seeing you at the house tour!
