Knossos Palace Prepares for Record Visitor Numbers in 2025

HERAKLION, CRETE – As the island of Crete prepares for another busy tourism season, visitors planning their trips to the world-renowned archaeological site of Knossos Palace will experience updated ticket pricing effective from April 1st through October 31st.

The Ministry of Culture and Sports recently announced the new ticket structure for the high season starting April 1st to Oct 31 2025.

Following last year’s unprecedented visitor turnout, where Knossos Palace recorded an all-time high in attendance numbers, officials have dedicated significant resources to improve infrastructure and visitor experience further. Preparations include enhanced accessibility, clearer signage, additional personnel, and streamlined entry procedures to accommodate even greater numbers with minimal waiting times.

“We expect this season to exceed even last year’s remarkable figures,” stated an official representative of the archaeological site. “Our team has worked diligently during the off-season months, upgrading facilities and optimizing operational flow, to ensure our visitors have the best possible experience while discovering Crete’s extraordinary heritage.”

Visitors to Knossos Palace, the largest Bronze Age archaeological site on Crete, can explore its renowned ancient ruins, intricately reconstructed frescoes, and legendary historical significance, including associations with the myth of the Minotaur and King Minos.
