Opening Events

Pittsburgh, We’re Getting it Ready for You!

The grand opening of the newly reimagined Pittsburgh International Airport is scheduled for Fall 2025. This historic event marks a major milestone in air travel, infrastructure, and innovation.

PIT Integrated Public Trial

Saturday, September 20
Registration has now closed for the Saturday, September 20 PIT Integrated Public Trial. Individuals will receive an email by the end of the month advising if they have been selected (or not) for participation in this full-scale dress rehearsal.

We’re thrilled that so many Pittsburghers showed up (18,000+) and expressed an interest in participating and that 8,400+ of those Pittsburghers registered for the opportunity.

This full-scale dress rehearsal will re-enact what a typical day at PIT will look and feel like once the new terminal opens. It’s a voluntary opportunity to test, shape, and influence the new PIT experience before it officially opens. Watch for coverage of the event in Blue Sky News.

Transformed PIT Evening Gala

Friday, October 3
Mark your calendars! The gala to celebrate the transformed PIT will be held on Friday, October 3, 2025. More details about this unique event that Pittsburghers will be talking about for years to come will be shared in the coming weeks.

Community Open House

Saturday, October 11
You are cordially invited to attend the ACAA Community Open House on Saturday, October 11, from noon to 7 p.m. The event is free and open to the public. Complimentary parking will be provided. Registration is required, and space is limited.

Visit communityopenhouse.pittransformed.com to register now.

The Open House welcomes 1,500 people an hour for the opportunity to see and explore the new pre-security terminal before it opens to travelers. This includes the opportunity to see the new terminal ceiling and lighting that reflects the rolling hills and stars of Western Pennsylvania and the tree columns that reflect the region’s trees – and are just as unique.

A few things to know:

• Visitors will select a one-hour time slot for their visit. If you are unable to select a specific time, all slots are full for that hour.
• Each adult will need to register separately and should use a unique email address for registration. A registration that uses an email that has already been used for a registration will be rejected as a duplicate.
• Adults may register children under the age of 18 with their registration. Please do not duplicate registrations of children. Children must arrive at the same time as the adult with whom they’re registered and must remain with that adult at all times.

With the tremendous response from Pittsburghers for the public trial, officials expect that available time slots will fill quickly.
