About Doors Open Buffalo: Doors Open Buffalo, Explore Buffalo’s signature annual event, is a day of free public access to architecturally and historically significant locations. The goal of Doors Open Buffalo is to excite visitors about Buffalo’s unique architectural heritage. Doors Open Buffalo is a unique opportunity to visit building interiors that are often not open to the public and is a choose-your-own-adventure event: visitors can visit as many locations and in whatever order they wish. Typically held on a Saturday in September, Doors Open Buffalo attracts thousands of visitors each year.
