Price History
How Prices Have Changed Over the Years
The Paris Museum Pass price has increased three times since 2019. Here’s how the pricing has evolved.
| Year | 2-Day | 4-Day | 6-Day | Change |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2019–2022 | €48 | €62 | €74 | Base prices |
| 2023 | €52 | €66 | €78 | +8% |
| 2024–2025 | €62 | €82 | €102 | +19% |
| 2026 (current) | €90 ↑ +45% | €109 ↑ +33% | €139 ↑ +36% | Largest rise |
2026 saw the largest price increase in the pass’s history — driven by significant admission price rises at major venues, particularly the Louvre (€22 → €32) and Sainte-Chapelle (€13 → €22). Despite the increase, the pass still saves significant money for visitors planning 4+ museums.

Discounts
Is There a Discount on the Museum Pass?
This is one of the most searched questions — and the answer is mostly no. But there are some important free-entry rules that effectively work as discounts.
✗ No Discounts Available
- No student discount — the Museum Pass is the same price for all adults regardless of age or student status
- No senior discount — full adult price applies for all ages 18 and over
- No group discount — groups of any size pay the same per-person price
- No early-bird or last-minute deals — the price is fixed and doesn’t vary by when you buy
- No promo codes — any site claiming a “discount code” is misleading; the official price is fixed
✓ Free Entry Rules (Better Than Discounts)
- Under 18s enter free at all national museums — regardless of nationality. No pass needed at all.
- EU/EEA residents under 26 enter all French national museums free — no pass needed, just show proof of residency
- First Sunday of each month — many national museums offer free entry on the first Sunday. The Museum Pass still lets you skip the (much longer) queue on these days.
- Disabled visitors and one companion enter many museums free — check each venue’s specific policy

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
The Paris Museum Pass costs €90 for a 2-day pass, €109 for a 4-day pass, and €139 for a 6-day pass. These are the official 2026 prices, which increased significantly from 2025 prices (€62, €82, and €102 respectively). The prices are fixed — there are no discounts, promo codes, or cheaper authorised sources.
Yes — 2026 saw the largest single price increase in the pass’s history. The 2-day pass rose from €62 to €90 (45%), the 4-day from €82 to €109 (33%), and the 6-day from €102 to €139 (36%). This was driven primarily by major admission price rises at top venues — the Louvre increased from €22 to €32 and Sainte-Chapelle from €13 to €22. Despite the increase, the pass still saves money for visitors planning 4+ venues.
No. There are no legitimate discount codes for the Paris Museum Pass. The price is set officially and all authorised resellers charge the same amount. Any website claiming to offer a “discount code” or reduced price is either misleading or selling counterfeit passes. The only way to pay less is if you or someone in your group qualifies for free entry — under 18s enter free, and EU/EEA residents under 26 also enter free at national museums.
The 4-day pass at €109 is the best value for most visitors — it costs just €19 more than the 2-day pass but gives you twice as long, bringing the per-day cost down from €45 to €27. The 6-day pass at €139 offers the lowest per-day cost (€23) but only makes sense if you genuinely plan to visit museums across 6 consecutive days. For a typical 4–5 night Paris trip, the 4-day pass is the right choice for most people.
Yes, for most visitors planning 4 or more museums. The Louvre alone costs €32, Versailles €21, and Orsay €16 — that’s €69 just for three venues, and you’re three-quarters of the way to the 2-day pass price. Add Arc de Triomphe (€16) and Sainte-Chapelle (€22) and you’ve spent €107 on five individual tickets versus €90 for the pass — saving €17 plus getting access to 45 more venues. Use our worth it calculator to check your specific itinerary.
Some airport shops sell the Museum Pass, but it’s not recommended — they may charge above the official price, and you lose the flexibility of buying online with free cancellation. The best approach is to buy online before your trip for instant digital delivery. If you want a physical pass, the Paris tourist office in the city is the most reliable in-person option at the official price.
