To buy tickets was so easy - and we skipped very long lines to the Art Museum. We were very impressed with such possibility. Amazing Centre! Worth visiting every time!

A little more expensive than on the museum's website, but I got my ticket for the day and time I wanted and I had no problem accessing the exhibition!

And I particularly liked the fact that someone who knows the art is always contrasted with it. So that you get used to the art of today, which of course doesn't just include comics, but above all narrative drawing, apparently. The house is just great.

It was great. We had to wait a while because the museum only opens at 11am. Fortunately we came early because the queue became quite long! Advise people to go on the early side

The surrealism exhibit was well-done, and though I was annoyed to have to download a new app to get the tickets, the app worked as it should and the tickets were available offline. My only real issue was that the Pompidou Centre lets too many visitors in at once for a small exhibition. We had timed/advance tickets, and it was far too crowded to truly enjoy the exhibit.

These tickets are valid until 11 Sep, 2025.

Centre Pompidou houses Europe’s largest collection of Modern and Contemporary Art. Featuring the works of many iconoclast art masters including Picasso, Pollock, and more, the building itself is considered a piece of modern art. An eye-turner in medieval quarters, Centre Pompidou is recognized as one of the ‘Big Three’ museums of Paris and is the third most visited attraction in Paris attracting over 5.5 million visitors annually.

Named after the ex-French president, Georges Pompidou, the architecture of the building is a sight to behold. With all its utilitarian features like plumbing, air vents, and cable forming part of the external facade, this rule-breaking building is best described as a building turned inside out; the perfect stage for modern art to be displayed
