Everything was wonderful!!! The punctuality, the ability to see the entire theater and stage. What about the exceptional, to say the least, ceiling painted by Chagall? I highly recommend this visit to everyone

We loved visiting the Paris Opera, I recommend that you take an audio guide right there, because the guided tours are in English and French.❤️

Easy purchase, no problem with tickets. Opera Palais Garnier Paris is not to be missed, a richly evocative place, beautiful to see and with works and arrangements on display that give space for imagination in time past. The bookshop is also nice.

The opera' is definitely an experience not to be missed. Majestic, elegant and refined. Too bad we couldn't see the stage because it is almost always closed to visitors. Excellent experience with headout. I sent an email to request information before purchasing the ticket and they responded very quickly.

These tickets are valid until 24 Feb, 2026.

Boasting an eclectic and ostentatious Baroque design, the Opera Garnier is one of the most extravagant representations of Second Empire architecture in France. Thanks to your timed entry tickets, benefit from quick and easy access to this magnificent building in the center of Paris.

Inaugurated in 1875 and named after its exciting young architect, Charles Garnier, it is the largest opera house in Europe. You will set eyes on the writhing snakes of the bronze “Pythonisse” sculpture, before climbing the double stairway of the “Grand Escalier” (Main Staircase). Imagine the swish of crinolines as you admire the breathtaking décor and stroll through vast foyers, filled with sparkling mosaics, colorful marble columns, and gold-leaf flourishes. Everywhere you look will be a feast for the eyes.
