According to the information on the website of the Palace Museum, the 2024 Palace Museum Annual Pass will be on sale from December 1 to December 31, 2023, and will go on sale at 20:00 pm on December 1. The 2024 Annual Pass is valid from January 1 to December 31, 2024.You can visit the museum 10 times within the validity period. Each visitor is limited to 1 ticket. The annual ticket price is 300 yuan, which does not include the Clock Museum and Treasure Museum.
It is worth noting that, according to the practice of previous years, the Forbidden City annual pass is still a "hot commodity".
For example, when the Forbidden City annual passes were on sale in 2022, due to too many people purchasing annual passes in a short period of time, a technical failure occurred in the system and the sales were urgently suspended. All 50,000 annual passes were sold out the day after they went on sale.
The peak season of the Forbidden City is from April 1st to October 31st every year, and the ticket price is 60 yuan per person;The off-season is from November 1st to March 31st of the following year, and the ticket price is 40 yuan per person.
If it is during the peak season, annual ticket users will get their money back after 5 visits, which is very cost-effective.
