Pro tips to help you make a pick

Temporary exhibitions and events are included in standard admission; separate tickets are needed for concerts or theater shows.

Book online in advance, especially for weekends or the first Sunday of the month (when entry is free but still requires a timed booking).

Discounted and free tickets (for EU residents under 26, persons with disabilities, etc.) must still be reserved in advance.

All tickets offer timed entry; arrive up to 15 minutes early. Late arrivals can lead to delays.

Choose from entry-only or combo tickets with other landmarks like the Eiffel Tower or the Louvre.

About Musée du quai Branly

Quai Branly is one of Paris’s most striking modern museums, dedicated entirely to the arts and cultures of Africa, Asia, Oceania, and the Americas. The museum houses thousands of rare objects, from ceremonial masks to textiles and sculptures, in an immersive, river-like layout. Book timed-entry tickets or curated combo tours online to explore it at your own pace.

Did you know?

The museum houses over 370,000 objects, with only a fraction on display at a time.

Its “river-like” layout guides visitors through dimly lit galleries that mimic organic, flowing spaces.

Claude Lévi-Strauss Theater is named after the renowned French anthropologist who inspired the museum’s mission.

The façade’s “green wall” was one of the first large-scale vertical gardens in Paris.

The museum’s Nomad Workshops take the collection beyond its walls, bringing cultural programs to local communities.

Why visit Musée du quai Branly?

Global Cultural Showcase

See over thousands of rare artifacts from Africa, Asia, Oceania, and the Americas, showcasing rich indigenous traditions, craftsmanship, and spiritual beliefs from across the non-Western world.

Architectural Wonder

Admire Jean Nouvel’s iconic design—an elevated, stilted structure with bold colors, glass corridors, and a flowing layout inspired by rivers and cultural movement.

Dynamic Rotating Exhibitions

Explore fresh exhibitions every season that reinterpret global cultures, often co-curated with international artists, scholars, and institutions to offer new perspectives on tradition and identity.

Live Events and Performances

Enjoy concerts, lectures, and global performances in the Lévi-Strauss Theater, a platform for cultural exchange featuring voices rarely represented in European institutions.

Lush Urban Garden

Relax in a 2-hectare landscaped garden with winding paths, ponds, and global flora—free to visit and designed to mirror the museum’s spirit of discovery.

Great trip. Excellent guide. Despite the large crowds, we managed to get to the top quite quickly. The views could be admired from all sides, because people stopped only for the time of taking a photo

The monuments were breathtaking. The bridges were excellent works of engineering. The boat was very comfortable and the cruise was smooth. The audio announcements were not clear on the top deck. This needs to improve.

There were a lot of people, but entry was quick and very orderly—though you’ll need patience during peak hours. It’s a lot of fun; you learn about history and get to admire everything there is to see.
