Opening of Obama Presidential Center Delayed, Again, Until Spring 2026

The Obama Presidential Center will not open to the public until spring 2026, ensuring that more than a decade will lapse between former President Barack Obama’s decision to build his presidential library in his adopted hometown and the center receiving its first visitors.

“The grand opening event for the center will take place in 2026 once the Chicago weather lifts and we are able to have a truly spectacular event for all who have supported the project and made the center possible,” according to a spokesperson for the Obama Foundation.
