Help Preserve Hildene

In 2025, many of our visitors experienced the beauty of Hildene thanks to our Lodging Sponsor guest ticket program. We are grateful for our partnerships with local lodging establishments and have created this program to make it easy for you to offer your guests a memorable visit to one of the region’s most treasured destinations.

Membership in the 2026 Lodging Sponsor Program is $300. As a valued partner, you’ll enjoy the following benefits:

• 15 Hildene Lodging Sponsor guest tickets: Create a “local experience” for guests by providing them with tickets to visit Hildene (a $375 value).
• Complimentary Hildene Household Membership (a $125 value).
• Online Visibility: Your establishment’s name and website are featured on our Lodging Sponsor web page. Please note: Listings are added in the order they are received, so join early for maximum exposure!
• Discounted tickets: Purchase additional tickets throughout the year at a discounted rate of $20 per ticket (10 ticket minimum; admission price is normally $25 per ticket).

As a Lodging Sponsor, your support directly helps preserve our historic buildings and maintain Hildene’s 412 beautiful acres — home to animal barns, a greenhouse, gardens, and scenic hiking trails. It also allows us to continue offering engaging educational programs and activities for visitors of all ages. Joining the Lodging Sponsor Program is more than a partnership — it’s a meaningful investment in our community and in the experience you offer your guests.
