Laser show and visitor center open this Saturday

The Grand Coulee Dam Visitor Center and laser light show will begin on Saturday in time for Memorial Day weekend. 

The U.S. Bureau of Reclamation announced the re-opening for the visitor center and the "One River, Many Voices" laser light show in a statement May 19.

"To safely re-open the visitor center and return the laser light show, Reclamation will be following the recommended guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention," the release states. "Fully vaccinated visitors are no longer required to wear a mask."

"The health and safety of the public and our employees remains our number one priority," said Grand Coulee Power Manager Coleman Smith. "We recognize the visitor center and laser light show are important to the Grand Coulee community and beyond. We appreciate everyone's patience and understanding with the new safety guidelines we have in place."

The visitor center will be open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. seven days a week.

The laser light show will begin at 10 p.m. from May 29 through July 31. Beginning on Aug. 1, it will start at 9:30 p.m., and for the month of September it will start at 8:30 p.m.

Dam tours will not take place this year due to the inability to social distance during parts of the tour.
