To book: Colosseum, Roman Forum and Palatine with a guide, from $55 per person. Check dates Tour details
The Jubilee ended on 6 January 2026, with the closing of the Holy Door at St Peter's. The new developments that followed are of a different kind: new tickets and higher prices at some of the most visited sites, different rules for residents and tourists in the City of Rome's museums, and earlier winter hours.
Here you will only find what is already in force or has an official date. The prices for all other attractions, from the Vatican Museums to the Galleria Borghese, are in the guide to Rome attraction tickets.
The short answer
From 2 February 2026, the area in front of the Trevi Fountain basin costs €2 for non-residents of Rome, every day from 9:00 to 22:00. From 1 July 2026, the Pantheon costs €7 and Castel Sant'Angelo €18. Residents enter the civic museums for free all year round, while tourists now pay in five museums that were previously free. From 25 October 2026, the Colosseum closes at 16:30, and from 9 November the Attico (Full Experience, €24) is visited in groups of a maximum of 25 people every 30 minutes.
How much does Trevi Fountain cost in 2026 and who is exempt?
€2 for tourists and non-residents of Rome, every day from 9:00 to 22:00. Residents, children up to 5 years old, people with disabilities and their companions do not pay.
The ticket has been in force since Monday 2 February 2026: the start was planned for 1 February and was postponed by one day. It covers the controlled area in front of the basin, which Roma Capitale calls the «catino».
The fee applies every day, including the first Sunday of the month. Residents of Roma Capitale and the Metropolitan City are exempt, with a document proving it, as are children up to 5 years old, people with disabilities and their companion. Tickets can be bought at the 10 SmartPOS at the entrance, at the Sistema Musei ticket offices and at the Tourist Infopoint; online sales have been announced.
You can still throw coins in. What remains forbidden is entering the water: according to reports, fines range from 160 to 450 euros for anyone who swims in historic fountains. Other costly prohibitions are in the guide to mistakes to avoid in Rome.
