The Grand Egyptian Museum Authority is excited to announce trial operations of its Main Galleries, starting from October 16th, 2024, offering visitors an exclusive preview of twelve meticulously curated exhibition halls. This trial phase is part of the museum's ongoing efforts to ensure a seamless visitor experience ahead of its highly anticipated official opening. The Grand Egyptian Museum’s (GEM) Main Galleries take guests on an extraordinary journey through millennia of history, spanning from prehistoric times (700,000 BC) to the Roman era (circa 394 AD). The collection in the Main Galleries can be appreciated both as individual masterpieces and as part of a broader historical narrative, offering an unparalleled exploration of Egypt’s rich heritage. It is important to note that the Tutankhamun Galleries will remain completely closed until the museum’s official opening.
