Audio Guide of the Picasso Museum

The museum is open from Tuesday to Sunday, from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. (until 7:00 p.m. in July and August). It is closed on Mondays, January 1, May 1, and December 25. Last admission is 30 minutes before closing. We recommend checking the latest hours on its official website.

General admission is €8. Free for visitors under 18. Discounts are available for students and groups. Admission is free on the first Sunday of every month. You can buy tickets online on the museum website.

We recommend allowing between 1 hour 30 minutes and 2 hours to see the full permanent collection and temporary exhibitions. This also includes time to enjoy the views from Grimaldi Castle and its panoramic terrace.

It is the first museum in the world dedicated to the artist. It is housed in Grimaldi Castle, where Picasso worked in 1946, creating more than 150 works that now form the core of the collection. He left his famous painting 'The Joy of Life' here as a legacy.

Avoid July and August if you prefer fewer people. In high season, visit early in the morning (10:00 a.m.) or later in the day (after 5:00 p.m.). September-October and April-May offer better weather and lighter crowds.

It has partially adapted access due to the castle's historic staircases. The lower floors are accessible, but there are limitations on the upper levels. Contact +33 (0)4 92 90 54 27 for specific needs.

Five minutes away is the Provençal Market (mornings except Sunday), the coastal ramparts, and Port Vauban, the largest marina in Europe. A 15-minute walk away: beaches and Cap d'Antibes with spectacular walking trails.

Yes, they offer audio guides in several languages (€2). For deeper insight, download the audio guide from IAudioguia with historical context and analysis of key works. Wear comfortable shoes (medieval floors) and take advantage of the sculpture garden to rest.
