Grand Egyptian Museum Closes Its Doors to Visitors from June 15 in Preparation for Its Opening

Starting Sunday, June 15 this month, the Grand Egyptian Museum will close its doors to Egyptian visitors and foreign tourists as part of the final preparations for the museum's official opening ceremony, scheduled for Thursday, July 3 next month. The closure will continue until July 5 to carry out a number of organizational and logistical works inside the museum, and the museum will reopen to visitors from July 6.

It is worth noting that President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi approved setting the opening of the Grand Egyptian Museum for the coming July 3, and Prime Minister Dr. Mostafa Madbouly is holding periodic meetings of the Supreme Committee for organizing the Grand Egyptian Museum opening ceremony events to follow up on the ongoing preparations for this global event. The events, which the whole world is awaiting, are scheduled to extend over several days.
