Why Van Gogh museum tickets have become more expensive?
Update, 13 March 2025: This week, we’ve received many questions from travelers asking why Van Gogh Museum tickets have suddenly increased in price. The ticket price has jumped from €26 to €34,50. Is it due to the high season? Not exactly.
From March 7 to June 9, 2025, the Van Gogh Museum and Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam are collaborating to present a major exhibition of German artist Anselm Kiefer.
At the Van Gogh Museum, you’ll find Vincent van Gogh’s iconic paintings displayed alongside works by Kiefer. Meanwhile, the Stedelijk Museum will showcase the full Kiefer collection for the first time.
The new €34,50 ticket price is a combination ticket for both museums (if purchased separately, the total would cost €48,50). Given this exciting collaboration, the Van Gogh Museum is expected to be more popular than usual in the coming months, so we highly recommend booking tickets in advance.
