On the occasion of the European Heritage Days (EHD), the largest and most widely attended cultural event promoted by the Council of Europe and the European Commission and coordinated in Italy by the Ministry of Culture, the Pompeii Archaeological Park is putting on a packed programme of re-enactments and educational activities on Saturday 26 and Sunday 27 September 2026.
The initiative, part of this year's edition built around the theme Protecting heritage. Renew, resist, reinvent, will see museums and cultural venues across the country taking part with guided tours, special openings and conferences. On the evening of Saturday 26 September, state museums will also offer a special late opening at the symbolic ticket price of 1 euro.
