Juliet's House tickets

The new way in

Forget the old routine of squeezing through the archway on Via Cappello. Since 1 April the only entrance is the Teatro Nuovo on Piazzetta Navona, just round the corner. You pass through the theatre's hall and foyer, where there's a small display on the Romeo and Juliet story, then into the courtyard and, with the full ticket, up into the house. The route is one-way and you exit through the Via Cappello arch. Numbers are capped and every ticket is timed and booked online.

If you're standing on Via Cappello watching people come out, you're at the exit.

Which ticket

Teatro–Courtyard, €5: the bronze statue and the balcony seen from below, which is the photo most people come for. Teatro–Courtyard–House, €12: adds the rooms of the house-museum and the balcony itself. The two aren't cumulative, so the €12 ticket covers the courtyard too.

Official tickets are on verona.midaticket.it. If you'll also visit the Arena or the Lamberti Tower the same day, the Verona Card (from €29 for 24 h) includes both Juliet routes for free and can work out cheaper. Note that Juliet's House is excluded from the city's €1 first-Sunday museum days.

Tiqets and GetYourGuide sell house tickets with an audio guide. They cost more than the city's ticket; what you pay for is the commentary in English, which the official ticket doesn't include, plus each reseller's own cancellation terms. Whatever you buy, make sure it shows a timed entry slot.

Timing tips

Slots are limited, so book as soon as your date is fixed, especially for weekends and Italian holidays. In summer heatwaves the city has temporarily closed the upper floors of the house; if the rooms matter to you, check notices before you go.

Accessibility

Visitors with disabilities who are accompanied and have enough mobility can go up to the balcony floor, not beyond. Entry is free for them and one companion with a Disability Card.
