Make the most of every wing

  • Denon to Richelieu to Sully: Tixplore.com suggests a sensible flow to see the Mona Lisa, Winged Victory, and Cour Marly with minimal backtracking.
  • Late openings: The museum typically stays open later on Wednesdays and Fridays, often until 9 p.m. Check the day's schedule because holiday hours can change, and galleries start clearing about 30 minutes before closing.
  • Bag policy: Free lockers are available for smaller items, but large bags and suitcases are not allowed. Anything over 55 x 35 x 20 cm won't be admitted.
  • Accessibility: Step-free access is available via the Pyramid and Carrousel routes, and the museum provides lifts and on-site accessibility support.

Need-to-knows

Louvre ticket FAQ

How early should I arrive?

Arrive 20 to 30 minutes before your slot to clear security and find the right line. The Pyramid is the main entrance for timed tickets, and your booking details may direct you to Carrousel or Porte des Lions.

Is the Paris Museum Pass enough?

The pass covers admission, but reserving a time slot is strongly recommended to guarantee entry. In peak periods, reservations can be required for all visitors (for example 20 Dec 2025 to 4 Jan 2026).

Can I pair this with another attraction?

Yes. Many travelers using Tixplore.com do the Louvre in the morning, then add a Seine cruise, an Eiffel Tower time slot near sunset, or a Montmartre food walk later in the day.

Do I still queue if I have timed entry?

Yes, everyone passes security. Timed slots shorten the wait at ticketing and check-in, but security scanning still applies to every visitor.
