No. Firenzecard is mainly intended for single tourists or small groups and at the moment, there is no other rate other than the full fee or a card for groups. In many museums, students and their teachers are given a free or reduced entry fee based on the age of the students and the type of school or academic curriculum. We advise checking the individual website of the museum you intend to visit for the terms of entry both for groups and school groups.

Firenzecard Restart allows you to extend the validity of any expired Firenzecard by 48 hours. Firenzecard Restart can only be used if you have bought the Firenzecard in the last 12 months and your card has expired, and it requires you to use the Firenzecard app. Like your original card, Firenzecard Restart includes free access for children associated to your card. Use Restart to visit museums that you have not visited yet. Restart can be activated once the original card is expired, either immediately after, or for a subsequent visit.
Important note: Make sure your device features the necessary technical requirements (iOS 16.0 or later; Android 11.0 or later – and a browser, such as: Chrome / Firefox / Safari, updated to the latest version available) before activating Restart.  
Currently Restart is FREE until December 2024.

 

 

A Firenzecard holder may associate family members under age 18 to the card, so Firenzecard is free to children with the purchase of one (adult) card. Minors must be associated to the card in one of the following ways:

• Firenzecard digital format: enter the number of minors when you create your card in the Firenzecard App before confirming your data; 
• Firenzecard physical format: when you collect your card at one of the collection points in Florence, inform Firenzecard staff to add your children to your card.

If the minors do not belong to the same family, if they do not wish to purchase a Firenzecard, they can pick up the ticket free of charge to visit civic and state museums (e.g. Palazzo Vecchio, Cappella Brancacci, The Uffizi Gallery, Gallery of Accademia, etc.) and purchase the ticket for the museums which admission is not free of charge. For state museums such as the Uffizi Gallery and Gallery of Accademia, we suggest purchasing the reservation (4€ each, that can be purchased directly at the entrances reserved to Firenzecard), in order to enter from the reserved entrances all together.
