Good to know before your visit
Entrance
For timed-ticket holders, the Louvre lists dedicated access at the Pyramid or Carrousel entrances. Entrance availability and access conditions can vary, so check the official entrance map before arrival. Porte des Lions is for visitors with admission tickets, closes at 6 p.m. with last entry at 5 p.m., and is closed on Tuesdays.
Price
The official benchmark for June 2026 is €22 for all visitors. Partner prices (starting around €46–€79) are higher because they include booking fees, hosting services, or bundled access to sold-out time slots.
Discounts
Free admission includes visitors under 18 of all nationalities and 18–25-year-olds who are EEA residents or citizens, subject to valid proof; additional categories also qualify. The Louvre advises free and reduced-admission visitors to reserve a time slot in advance to help secure entry, and ticket holders may be asked for photographic ID or supporting documents.
Timing
Arrive early enough for security checks, ticket scanning and wayfinding.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Does a 'skip-the-line' ticket really skip the queue?
It skips the ticket-office queue only. All visitors, regardless of ticket type, must wait in the mandatory security screening line.
Can I show my ticket on my smartphone?
Yes, mobile tickets are fully accepted. Ensure your phone is charged as you will need to scan it at the entrance and again to enter specific wings.
What happens if I miss my booked time slot?
The Louvre allows a 30-minute grace window. If you are later than that, you lose priority and may be denied entry or asked to join the much longer walk-in line.
Is the Mona Lisa included in a standard ticket?
Yes, but be prepared for a secondary queue inside the Denon wing specifically for the Mona Lisa, which can take 30–60 minutes during peak hours.
Are there free days in May 2026?
Yes, the first Friday (May 1) is a public holiday and the museum is closed. However, a special free 'Museum Night' occurs on Saturday, May 23, 2026, requiring a mandatory advance reservation.
Can I leave the museum and come back in?
No, tickets are for a single entry only. Once you exit the security perimeter, you cannot re-enter with the same ticket.
