To attend, visitors must select a one-hour time slot. Adult will need to register separately and should use a unique email address for registration, but are able put children under the age of 18 with their registration.

Those visiting the open house should expect to see 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,” according to a release.

The open house follows Pittsburgh International Airport’s “public trial” on Sept. 20, where over 2,000 members of the public are expected test the new terminal’s systems, as well as the Oct. 3 gala for partners and organizations involved in building the project.

While at the open house attendees can expect a variety of activities for all ages through Pittsburgh International Airport’s community partners: the Children’s Museum of Pittsburgh, Kamin Science Center, Tree Pittsburgh and the Airports Authority’s xBridge program, which offers educational activities.
