France's Culture budget is enormous, but one thing I really appreciate is the many schemes for free entry to museums. It's probably bad for the budget, but good for open access to culture (around 40% of visitors to the Louvre do not pay)
Do you qualify for free entry to French museums?
As the Louvre museum plans to increase tickets for non-EU visitors in 2026, The Local looks at the groups who can benefit from free entry into French museums.
