Official Opening of the Grand Egyptian Museum Postponed to the Last Quarter of the Year

In light of the current regional developments, it has been decided to postpone the official opening of the Grand Egyptian Museum, which was originally scheduled for July 3rd.

A new date for the official opening will be set during the last quarter of this year, and it will be announced in due course, following coordination with all relevant authorities to ensure the organization of an event that reflects Egypt’s prominent cultural and tourism status on the international stage.

This decision also stems from Egypt’s national responsibility and its commitment to presenting a truly exceptional global event in an atmosphere worthy of the grandeur of Egyptian civilization and its unique heritage, and in a way that ensures broad international participation aligned with the significance of the occasion.

The Grand Egyptian Museum will continue to welcome visitors as part of its soft opening phase until the newly scheduled date for the official inauguration later this year.
