This is the last time this exhibit will be on display in North America, so if you want to see it, now is the time! We have received many inquiries from you on where to find discounted tickets. Here is a list of deals we are aware of for the King Tut Exhibit. If you know of more, be sure to leave us a comment below!

The exhibition features:

• More than 100 objects from King Tut’s tomb and ancient sites representing some of the most important rulers throughout 2,000 years of ancient Egyptian history.
• More than twice the number of artifacts than the original Tut exhibit that toured in the 1970s, many of these objects have never toured in the United States before this exhibit.
• Come face-to-face with the largest image of King Tut ever unearthed – a 10-foot statue of the pharaoh found at the remains of the funerary temple of two of his high officials.
• See authentic objects from King Tut’s tomb including jewelry, furniture and ceremonial items, as well as the boy king’s golden sandals – created specifically for the afterlife and covering his feet when his mummified remains were discovered in 1922 by British explorer Howard Carter.
• Tutankhamun: The Golden King and the Great Pharaohs is organized by National Geographic and Arts & Exhibitions International
