Tickets

Timed ticketing

When you purchase your tickets, you will be asked to choose a date and time when you would like to see the exhibition. Tickets are sold every hour from 10am. With a timed ticket, a pre-established number of guests can enter during each session. This will allow for minimal queues if any and will enhance your viewing experience by limiting the number of patrons in the exhibition at the one time.  The Gallery closes 1 hour after the last session.

Parking and access

Please note that the National Gallery car parks are accessible off Bowen Drive and Parkes Place East.
