Security Controls

It isn't permitted to enter the Basilica with large bags or backpacks: there is a free locker on Calle San Basso. Conservative clothing is recommended; if your clothing is inappropriate, you'll have to pay 2 Euros to rent a cape to enter.

Tickets

If you choose the option that only includes the "Main Nave", please note that entrance tickets to the terrace, the museum and the Pala de Oro are not included in this visit. The only way to purchase them is through the Basilica's official website: https://basilicasanmarco.skiperformance.com/en/store#/en/buy?skugroup_id=2524. It's important to know that individual tickets are no longer sold. Therefore, if you have opted for the "Main Nave" option, you'll need to purchase a new cumulative ticket that also includes the ground floor.

Itinerary Changes

Due to changes in operation, the skip-the-line service is temporarily suspended, and therefore all visitors will have to wait in line to enter the basilica.

From Monday to Saturday, the entrance will be on the ground floor of the basilica (the Pala d'Oro will be visible in the distance). Then, you'll go up to the upper floor to visit the museum, where you'll also be able to see the mosaics, after which you can go outside onto the terrace.

On Sundays and public holidays, visitors will enter directly from the upper floor to visit the museum and the outdoor terrace. The first floor will not be visited, as it is where mass takes place. On these days, it will not be possible to see the Pala d'Oro or the mosaics.
