On Thursday evenings, the museum remains open until 9:45 p.m., and visitors can enjoy a more intimate and relaxed atmosphere to explore the collections. Take advantage of it, as the Musée d'Orsay Nocturne ticket is cheaper than during the day!

During the Nocturnes, visitors can discover the museum's permanent collections, as well as the ongoing temporary exhibitions. Visitors can also attend special events such as concerts, readings, film screenings, and lectures.

The Nocturnes offer a unique experience of visiting the Musée d'Orsay, with extended opening hours that allow visitors to enjoy the museum in a quieter and more intimate atmosphere.
