Louvre Free Admission on the First Friday Evening of the Month

The Louvre Museum in Paris currently offers free admission to all visitors on the first Friday of each month after 6 p.m., except in July and August. The museum's current ticket page also lists free entry for all visitors on July 14. The Louvre help centre states that booking a time slot is mandatory for the first-Friday free evening and that free slots are normally posted online a few days beforehand. The next first-Friday evening after this verification is September 4, 2026. Capacity and opening arrangements can change, and special conditions may apply to individual spaces, so reserve only through the Louvre's official ticketing service.
