The full price table
These are the rates we verified in August 2026 on Headout listings. The official tariffs are set in euro by Le Gallerie degli Uffizi and published on uffizi.it — if the two ever disagree on the day you travel, the official site wins.
| Ticket | Online | Desk rate | Saving |
|---|---|---|---|
| Timed entry (all 5 palace museums) | $28.24 | $34.58 | −18% |
| Palace + Boboli Gardens combo | $39.07 | $46.10 | −15% |
| Florence 5-day pass (Uffizi + Pitti + Boboli) | $57.70 | — | bundle price |
The online timed-entry ticket also includes a multilingual audio guide that the desk ticket does not, which widens the real gap beyond the sticker prices. A full walkthrough of what each option suits is on the tickets comparison page.
What each price tier includes
Timed entry — $28.24
One ticket, five museums: the Palatine Gallery, the Royal Apartments, the Gallery of Modern Art, the Treasury of the Grand Dukes and the Museum of Costume and Fashion. That is the entire 32,000 m² palace interior. You choose an entry slot; once inside you stay as long as you like within opening hours.
Palace + Boboli combo — $39.07
Everything above, plus the 45,000 m² Boboli Gardens, the Bardini Garden and the Porcelain Museum. For roughly $11 extra it turns a museum visit into a half-day estate visit — see the Boboli combo page for how to split your time between palace and gardens.
Florence 5-day pass — $57.70
The Uffizi, the Pitti Palace and the Boboli Gardens on one pass, valid five consecutive days. In high season the three tickets bought separately cost noticeably more, and you spread Florence's two biggest galleries over different days instead of cramming them into one.
Free and reduced entry: who qualifies
Children and teens (0–17): free
Anyone under 18 enters free, whatever their nationality. The catch people miss: each child still needs a reserved ticket, even though it costs nothing. Book it in the same order as the adult tickets and carry ID as proof of age. Under-18s must be accompanied by an adult.
EU citizens 18–25: reduced rate
EU citizens aged 18 to 25 pay a reduced tariff at official channels. Bring an identity document that shows both age and citizenship — it is checked at the entrance, not just at purchase. The exact reduced euro amount is set by Le Gallerie degli Uffizi; confirm it on uffizi.it before you rely on it.
First Sunday of the month: free, with a trade-off
On the first Sunday of every month, entry to the palace is free for everyone under the Italian state museums scheme. Sounds unbeatable — but free Sundays are non-reservable. No timed slots exist, online sellers can't help you, and everyone funnels through the same desk line. Queues build from mid-morning and the Palatine Gallery gets packed.
Our honest advice: free Sunday is great if you live nearby or are on a repeat visit and can walk away if the line is absurd. If this is your one shot at the palace, a $28.24 timed ticket on a quiet weekday morning buys you a far better visit than $0 in a crowd. Check the quietest days and times before deciding.
What about the Firenze Card and city passes?
Florence's city passes change their museum line-ups, prices and reservation rules often enough that anything we print here could be stale by your travel date. We won't invent details: verify the current card offer and whether it covers the Pitti Palace on the official channels before building your plans around one. For most visitors focused on the Uffizi–Pitti–Boboli triangle, the 5-day pass above does the same job with fewer moving parts.
Six ways to pay less
- Book online, not at the desk. The current gap is 15–18% on the main tickets — the single easiest saving.
- Bundle the gardens. The combo costs less than palace and Boboli tickets bought separately, and one booking covers both.
- Multi-day trip? Take the pass. $57.70 for Uffizi + Pitti + Boboli undercuts separate high-season tickets.
- Claim the free child tickets. A family of four with two kids pays for two adults only — but reserve all four tickets.
- Under 26 and an EU citizen? Buy at official channels with ID for the reduced euro rate.
- Time it, don't just discount it. An 8:15 am slot costs the same as a noon slot and is worth more — see how long to plan and how to arrive without wasting your slot.

Frequently asked questions
How much does a Pitti Palace ticket cost?
On Headout, timed entry costs $28.24 — 18% under the $34.58 walk-up rate. The combo with the Boboli Gardens is $39.07 (15% off $46.10) and the 5-day Uffizi + Pitti + Boboli pass is $57.70. Prices checked August 2026; official euro tariffs are published on uffizi.it.
Is the Pitti Palace free on the first Sunday of the month?
Yes. On the first Sunday of each month all state museums, including the Pitti Palace, are free. Entry cannot be reserved — everyone queues at the desk — so expect long lines, especially mid-morning. Good for repeat visitors, hard work for a first visit.
Do children pay to enter the Pitti Palace?
No. Visitors aged 0–17 enter free, but each child still needs a reserved (free) ticket and must be accompanied by an adult. Bring ID or a passport as proof of age.
Is there a discount for young EU citizens?
Yes. EU citizens aged 18–25 pay a reduced rate at official channels with a valid ID showing citizenship and age. The reduction applies to the euro tariff set by Le Gallerie degli Uffizi — details on uffizi.it.
Why are prices shown in dollars?
Headout lists this palace in USD for English-language checkout; you can pay in your own currency and the site converts at checkout. The official tariffs are set in euro by Le Gallerie degli Uffizi and published on uffizi.it.
Is the Boboli Gardens combo worth the extra money?
Usually yes. For about $11 more than the palace alone you add the Boboli Gardens, the Bardini Garden and the Porcelain Museum — enough for a full half-day. Skip it only in bad weather or if you are tight on time.
Does a Florence city card cover the Pitti Palace?
City passes for Florence change their line-ups and conditions from year to year, so we deliberately do not list them here. Check the current official channels for what any city card includes before relying on it, or compare against the 5-day Uffizi + Pitti + Boboli pass.
