A Landmark Moment for Egypt’s Cultural Heritage

After years of planning, construction and world-class preparation, the Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM) is set to officially open to the world.
Located just minutes away from the Pyramids of Giza, GEM represents a new era in how ancient Egyptian civilization will be experienced by global visitors.

Key Dates & Visitor Information

  • The official inauguration ceremony for GEM is planned for 1 November 2025.
  • Full public access is expected from 4 November 2025, following final preparations and closures.
  • Note: The museum will be closed for final set-up from about 15 October to early November.

What Makes GEM Unique

  • GEM houses over 100,000 artifacts, many on display for the first time publicly — a comprehensive journey through Egyptian civilization.
  • Highlight pieces include the complete treasury of King Tutankhamun and the reconstructed solar boat of Khufu — among the most anticipated exhibits.
  • The architecture and setting are designed to reflect Egypt’s legacy: the museum sits adjacent to the Giza Plateau, framed by the Pyramids as a visual anchor.
