Verona Card & Juliet's House: How to Book Your Slot

Even with the Verona Card, Casa di Giulietta needs a separate time-slot booking. Here's exactly how to reserve it and avoid being turned away.

  • Casa di Giulietta (Juliet's House) requires a separate, mandatory time-slot reservation, even if you already hold a Verona Card.

  • The booking is free and made through the official museum reservation portal, selecting the free "Verona Card" entry option.

  • Book before you exchange your voucher for the physical card, if possible — you don't need the physical card in hand to reserve a slot.

  • Casa di Giulietta is typically closed on Mondays, along with the Arena.

Verona Card and Juliet's House: How to Book Your Time Slot

Owning a Verona Card does not automatically grant entry to Casa di Giulietta — you must also reserve a free timed entry slot through the official booking system before your visit. Skipping this step is one of the most common reasons visitors get turned away at the door.

Why Juliet's House Works Differently From Other Attractions

Most attractions covered by the Verona Card — see the full attractions list — only require you to show your card at the entrance. Casa di Giulietta is the exception: because it's one of the most visited sites in the city, entry is managed through timed slots to control crowd flow, regardless of whether you're paying full price or entering free with the Verona Card.

How to Book Your Slot

  1. Go to the official reservation portal, the site used by Verona's civic museums for timed entries.

  2. Select the free "Verona Card" entry option rather than a paid ticket type.

  3. Choose your preferred date and time window.

  4. Complete the reservation — you'll typically receive a confirmation you should keep on your phone or printed.

You can generally do this before you've even picked up your physical Verona Card — see how to buy and use the Verona Card — the reservation is tied to your visit date and time, not to the card itself.

Timing Tips

  • Book as early as possible, especially in peak season (spring through early autumn), when slots fill up.

  • Avoid Mondays — Casa di Giulietta, like the Arena, is typically closed.

  • Pair it with nearby sites: Casa di Giulietta sits in the historic center, close to Torre dei Lamberti and Piazza delle Erbe, so it fits naturally into a walking loop — see the one-day Verona itinerary.

  • Remember the card's validity clock: if this is your first stop of the day, this is when your 24 or 48 hours will start counting — see 24-hour vs 48-hour Verona Card.

What Happens If You Don't Book

Turning up at Casa di Giulietta with a Verona Card but no reservation does not guarantee entry — during busy periods you may be asked to book a later slot or turned away entirely. Given that the reservation is free and takes only a few minutes, there's little reason to skip this step.

Is Casa di Giulietta Worth Prioritizing?

It's one of the most iconic stops on the Verona Card, and one of the more expensive standalone tickets, which is part of why it factors heavily into whether the Verona Card is worth it for your specific trip. If you're comparing the card against buying tickets individually, Juliet's House is usually one of the highest-value inclusions — see Verona Card vs individual tickets.
