Alanya Museum Now Welcomes Visitors Until 10 PM: A New Nighttime Experience

Alanya is stepping into an exciting new chapter for culture lovers and history enthusiasts. Thanks to the “Night Museum” project introduced by the Ministry of Culture and Tourism, the Alanya Museum has extended its opening hours into the evening. Starting from June 1, visitors can now explore the museum’s rich collection until 10:00 p.m., offering a completely different experience after sunset.

Discover History Under the Night Sky

This initiative is part of a broader effort to make cultural sites more accessible during the busy summer months. By extending visiting hours, the Ministry aims to ease daytime crowds and give both locals and tourists the chance to enjoy historical treasures in a more peaceful, cooler evening setting.

The Alanya Museum, which highlights the region’s fascinating past with both archaeological and ethnographic exhibits, will now shine in a new light—literally. Imagine viewing the famous Heracles statue, Roman relics, and Seljuk-era pieces under the soft glow of nighttime lighting. The unique ambiance of the evening hours brings a new perspective to these ancient artifacts, creating a truly memorable experience.

Entry Details for the Night Museum

To join this special evening tour, local visitors will need a valid Museum Card and an additional entrance fee of 100 TL. Evening tickets will go on sale starting at 6:15 p.m., and to save time, guests are encouraged to activate their Museum Cards in advance through the mobile app.

Night Visits Across Antalya

The Alanya Museum is just one of several cultural sites participating in the Night Museum project. Other locations now open for evening visits until 10:00 p.m. include:

• Antalya Museum

• Aspendos Archaeological Site

• Side Archaeological Site

• Patara Archaeological Site

• Necropolis Museum

Alanya, with its vibrant tourism scene and strong local interest, is expected to be one of the most popular spots for this evening program. The extended hours not only offer a cooler, more relaxed environment but also give visitors a rare opportunity to experience the region’s heritage in a way that daytime visits simply can’t match.

Whether you’re a history lover, a cultural explorer, or simply looking for a unique evening activity, the Night Museum in Alanya is now ready to welcome you under the stars.
