The Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities has announced that the Grand Egyptian Museum will continue to receive visitors under its trial opening until close to the new date for the official opening during the last quarter of this year, 2025, following the decision to postpone the opening that had been scheduled for July 3.
It is worth noting that the Grand Egyptian Museum had been scheduled to close its doors to visitors from June 15 until July 5, in preparation for the museum's official opening on July 3.
In light of current regional developments, it has been decided to postpone the official opening of the Grand Egyptian Museum. A new date for the museum's official opening will be set during the last quarter of this year and announced in due course, after coordination with all relevant authorities to ensure the organization of an event befitting Egypt's tourism and cultural standing on the international stage.
The decision also stems from the Egyptian state's sense of national responsibility and its keenness to present an exceptional global event in an atmosphere befitting the greatness of Egyptian civilization and its unique heritage, ensuring broad international participation commensurate with the importance of the event.
