How to book the official Vasari Corridor ticket

Official ticket firstUffizi plus corridor costs €47 on the museum’s own site. The options below sell a guide for the paintings, or a slot when the official ones are gone.
Compare all sixBooking it, step by step
- Go to the museum’s own shop, tickets.uffizi.it. Anything else, including every link on this site, is a reseller or a tour.
- Choose the Uffizi + Vasari Corridor ticket. By day there is no corridor-only ticket, so this is the one.
- Pick your date and the corridor time. Daytime visits run Tuesday to Sunday: the first group enters at 10.15 am and the last group leaves at 4.45 pm.
- Enter each visitor’s name exactly as it appears on the photo ID they will carry. Tickets are checked when you enter the Uffizi and again at the corridor entrance.
- Buy no more than five tickets in one go. The cap holds even across different dates, so a family of six makes two purchases.
- Pay, and keep the ticket on your phone. It carries a link to a map of the route to the meeting point.
Before you pay, be sure of the date. The tickets are named, personal, non-transferable and non-refundable. A reservation is needed for every visitor without exception, including guides, disabled visitors and their carers, and children under 6.
The time on the ticket is the corridor time
This is the part people get wrong. The combined ticket lets you into the Uffizi two hours before your corridor slot, so a 1.00 pm slot means you can enter the gallery from 11.00 am. The meeting point is Room D19, the “Venetian small chapel” on the first floor, and the museum reckons it takes about 45 minutes to walk there from the entrance. Be at D19 five minutes before the slot. Late means you lose the right to enter: groups set off at a fixed time and nobody joins after.
Two hours sounds generous until you are inside. David Richard, from the United Kingdom, spent five hours in the Uffizi and missed his corridor slot. I have set out the timings on how long it takes.
Other ways to buy
The call centre sells the same tickets on +39 055 0354135, or 800 615 615 toll-free from inside Italy, Monday to Sunday from 8 am to 7 pm. You can also buy at the ticket offices, which stay open even when the online shop shows a date as sold out. Sales for April to December 2026 opened on 2 February 2026, and Uffizi tickets are released gradually, so a sold-out date is worth checking again.
If your date is sold out
Work down this list, cheapest first.
- Check again, then phone. Gradual release means slots do appear.
- Take a Friday evening: until 20 November 2026, corridor only, no gallery visit, €24 ahead. Dates and times.
- Try the free first Sunday, if you can reserve online in time. How it works.
- Add the €20 supplement if you already hold an Uffizi ticket or an annual pass. The corridor slot must be at least two hours after your Uffizi slot, or you sign a form accepting less gallery time, and at least 30 minutes after in any case.
- Book a ticket listing or a tour. The ticket-only listings at €79–83 cost €32–36 more than the official €47. John, from the United States, booked one because “everything else was sold out”. The guided options are compared on all tours.

Five per transaction, even if they are for different dates. Every visitor needs a named reservation, children under 6 included.
