How to Get Tickets

Admission to Pompeii: Stories from an Eruption requires a timed-entry ticket that specifies a 30-minute window for entering the exhibition. Once you have entered the exhibition, you may stay as long as you like.

Admission to Pompeii: Stories from an Eruption is $19 and must be purchased as a part of the Field Museum’s Gold Pass.

Antenna Audio tours of Pompeii: Stories from an Eruption are $5 for adults, $4 for members and children 11 years old and younger.

Save money when you add on another specially ticketed exhibition at the same time that you purchase your Pompeii: Stories from an Eruption ticket. If you decide to see another ticketed exhibition, such as Underground Adventure, after entering the Museum, tickets will be the full price.
