Summer has become a more attractive time to visit the museum for residents of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), as Louvre Abu Dhabi is offering them a 30 percent discount on entrance tickets as part of its summer program. This gives families an additional reason to visit the museum during their vacation period.
The offer is valid from August 1st to September 30th, while children continue to have free entry. The ticket grants access to the museum's galleries, exhibitions, open areas under the dome, the museum cafe, Fouquet’s Abu Dhabi, and the boutique.
The museum has prepared various family-oriented events and exhibitions to entertain visitors of all ages. One of the main events is the children's exhibition 'A Board Game Adventure,' which allows young guests to get acquainted with art through interactive games. This exhibition explores how games such as chess, Mancala, Ludo, and Carrom traveled across continents, uniting people and cultures over centuries.
Furthermore, the museum hosts summer camps for children, offering activities aimed at developing creativity, curiosity, and imagination during school holidays. Participants will embark on an exciting journey through the history of board games through practical sessions and collaborative tasks, and will also have the opportunity to create their own games.
Film lovers can enjoy a curated collection of films as part of the museum's summer film program, and families can take advantage of 'Free Family Weekends,' which include creative activities for parents and children. This monthly package of offers is designed to encourage residents to explore the museum's collections and exhibitions while enjoying various indoor activities during the summer months.
The 30 percent discount on tickets is exclusively available to UAE residents until September 30th. The ticket price is 49 dirhams, and proof of eligibility for the discount must be presented upon visiting.
