Segesta and Selinunte: €14 each, but €17 at Selinunte

Segesta and Selinunte both list a €14 full ticket, but in 2026 Selinunte adds a compulsory €3 supplement for an exhibition, so you pay €17, and Segesta rises to €16 when a temporary exhibition is on.

€14 on paper, €17 at the gate in Selinunte

The Selinunte base price is €14 full and €7 reduced, and a €3 supplement for the exhibition Pericolo estinzione is compulsory, bringing the total to €17 and €10 (2026).

You can't opt out of the supplement. The €14 you'll see quoted is the price of the site; the €17 is the price of getting in this year. Both are in euros.

Selinunte closes at sunset, sales stop earlier

Selinunte opens at 8 or 9 am depending on the season and closes at sunset, and the ticket office shuts at some point between 4:30 pm and 7 pm (16:30 to 19:00 at the desk).

Sunset is a moving target, and the desk closes before it. In the short months, arrive with the whole afternoon still ahead of you.

The address is Piazzale Iole Bovio Marconi 1, Marinella di Selinunte, in the comune of Castelvetrano, province of Trapani.

The size claim nobody official makes

The official Selinunte page does not publish the park's surface, so the familiar line about the largest archaeological park in Europe, at 270 hectares, isn't repeated here as fact.

It may be true. It isn't on the operator's page, and a size claim is exactly the kind of number that should come from the operator.

Segesta: €14, or €16 with an exhibition

Segesta costs €14 full and €7 reduced, and €16 full while a temporary exhibition is running (2026).

Unlike Selinunte, the exhibition price here depends on whether an exhibition is on at all. Segesta's opening hours are not verified for this page, so check the regional park's page on the day.

Five more sites on the same park, free

The regional park that runs Segesta also opens five other areas free of charge: Mokarta, Monte Castellazzo, Rocca di Entella, San Miceli and the Grotte di Scurati.

None of them is Segesta's temple and theater. They're for a second day in the area, and how to reach them isn't covered by the verified figures.

Two tickets, €31 for both

No joint ticket is published for the two sites in the figures checked for 2026: each sells its own.

Seeing both at full price costs €31, €14 at Segesta and €17 at Selinunte. The reduced rates add up to €17.

For the island's other sites, see the Valle dei Templi, the Villa Romana del Casale, ten days in Sicily and Sicily.
