Madame Tussauds Budapest Tickets

One ticket gets you into Madame Tussauds Budapest, and it is sold for a date and a time slot. There is no separate ticket for the zones, the sets or the Pop&Roll Art Toilet, because admission covers the lot.

The one date rule that matters is the slot itself. The museum cannot let you in before it starts, gives you 15 minutes’ grace after it, and guarantees entry at your chosen time only to people who booked online. Both tickets below can be cancelled free up to 24 hours ahead, so booking early costs you nothing if plans change.

Why book ahead

  • Entry is timed and capped. The museum admits walk-ups only when the slot has room, and says online booking is the only way it guarantees your time
  • Both tickets can be cancelled free up to 24 hours before the visit, so there is no downside to booking early
  • You skip the sales desk and go straight to the entrance with the QR code on your phone
  • Weekends and school holidays are when a slot is worth having in hand

Ticket types

Entry ticket

The plain timed ticket, sold by Tiqets. It covers every zone and set in the museum, and any admission ticket also gets you into the Pop&Roll Art Toilet after your visit, so nothing is missing from this one.

  • You choose a date and a time slot when you book
  • A QR code arrives by email; show it on your phone
  • Free cancellation and rescheduling up to 24 hours before your visit
  • The rates for adults and children are shown on the booking page

Entry with Pop&Roll access

The same visit, sold by GetYourGuide with the Pop&Roll Art Toilet named on the product. It is the ticket to pick if you want the rates spelled out before you book, or want to reserve without paying yet.

  • Valid for one day
  • Adult 16 to 64, child 5 to 15, infant 4 and under, senior 65 and over, student 18 to 25 with ID
  • Free cancellation up to 24 hours ahead, and reserve now, pay later

Walk-up tickets at the door

The museum sells tickets on the spot, but it admits walk-ups only on the capacity left in the slot, and it says outright that it can guarantee a time only to online bookers. Reasonable as a backup on a quiet weekday, not a plan for a Saturday.

Reduced tickets for disabled visitors

The museum sells a reduced ticket for disabled visitors and a reduced companion ticket for one carer. Both are bought on site, not through our partners, on showing a card from one of the Hungarian disability organisations the museum lists or the International Disability Card, which staff check at the door.

Who counts as a child

  • Under 16: must be accompanied by an adult, whichever ticket you hold
  • Under 4: admitted free, but the museum requires a baby ticket for them. The booking page shows how the ticket you are buying handles infants
  • Students need a valid student ID for the student rate, and seniors may be asked for ID

Where to buy

Online (recommended): book a date and slot in advance online. The QR code arrives by email and is all you need at the entrance.

On the door: the desk in the Palazzo Dorottya ticket hall sells tickets during opening hours, subject to space in the next slots. Last entry is an hour before closing. The souvenir shop can be visited from the street without a ticket.

How to book

  1. Pick your ticket

    The entry ticket for most people; the Pop&Roll ticket if you want the child, student or senior rate shown, or to pay later.

  2. Choose a date and a time slot

    Weekday mornings from 10:00 are the calmest. Saturday is the only day with evening slots, because the museum stays open until 20:00.

  3. Save the QR code

    It arrives by email. Save it to your phone so it works without a signal in the ticket hall.

  4. Arrive for the start of your slot

    Not before, because the museum cannot admit you early, and not more than 15 minutes after. Bags may be checked on the way in.

Before you go

  • Your ticket is for one entry on the date and in the slot you booked
  • Children under 16 must be with an adult; under-4s need a baby ticket
  • Bags may be searched. Backpacks are fine and there is a locker by the entrance for small bags; suitcases and large luggage are not allowed in and cannot be stored
  • Not allowed in: weapons, anything sharp (knives, scissors, corkscrews, metal nail files), glass bottles, alcohol, drones, skateboards, scooters and roller skates
  • Photography is allowed and encouraged in every public area
  • No food or drink in the exhibition; the Cinema Café inside sells coffee, soft drinks and snacks
  • See our opening hours guide for the days the museum closes early, and our how to get there guide for the nearest stations

Frequently asked questions

Can I buy tickets at the door?

Yes, but the museum admits walk-ups only when there is capacity in the slot, and it guarantees entry at the time you want only with an online booking. Online is the safe plan at weekends and in school holidays.

What’s the difference between the two tickets?

The museum visit is identical. The Tiqets ticket is the plain timed entry. The GetYourGuide ticket names free entry to the Pop&Roll Art Toilet on the product and lists child, student and senior rates, and lets you reserve now and pay later. Both can be cancelled free up to 24 hours ahead.

Do I need to print my ticket?

No. The Tiqets ticket arrives as a QR code by email, which you show on your phone at the entrance.

What happens if I am late for my slot?

You have 15 minutes’ grace after the start of your slot. Later than that, speak to the staff at the desk; the museum does not promise to let you in. It also cannot admit you before your slot begins.

Are there discounts for children or students?

The GetYourGuide ticket lists a child rate for ages 5 to 15, a student rate for 18 to 25 with ID, a senior rate from 65 and a free infant rate for 4 and under. Whichever ticket you buy, children under 16 must be with an adult and under-4s need a baby ticket of their own.

Can I get a refund if I change my plans?

Both tickets we link to can be cancelled free up to 24 hours before your visit, and the Tiqets ticket can be moved to another date up to the same point.
