The Easter Egg Roll is an Easter Monday tradition in Washington, DC which allegedly started in the early 1800s with Dolly Madison. Today, the event takes place on the White House Lawn, and includes thousands of children and their parents who descend upon the White House to play games, hunt for eggs, listen to stories, and meet the Easter Bunny. Entrance to the Easter Egg Roll is available to anyone holding a ticket, and tickets are available for free on a first come, first serve basis through the White House and organizations to which the White House releases blocks of tickets.
