Are you looking on official site?
Are tix even on sale yet for April 2025?

They go fast.
There is no line for Last Supper
You either have tix or you don’t
Rarely if ever walk up availability

You can book a tour with a 3rd party if necessary

Not quite sure why you're seeing negative replies - are you saying that you've
found sites that say they have availability but are unable to book? I see ticket
availability from Viator, amongst others, but did not try to click all the way thru
to complete the booking.

As you have probably discovered, the 3rd party tours are quite a bit (like, 5 or
6 times) more expensive than the regular tickets. But since official tickets
for April are already on sale, the 3rd parties are also reselling them now as well.

As far as I know, the term "skip-the-line" is a bit trite in this situation, as you
to buy tickets for a certain time, and the guide is provided by the museum, not
the 3rd party agency. So the 3rd parties are essentially scalping tickets.

As you also may have noted, there are tickets available for some dates in early
January - most likely additional tickets released by the museum. If you look at
previous posts in the Italy forum, you'll see that most people keep checking
and more tickets get released at certain times, but, you have to be quick.

As previous responses explained, there is no line that you will skip with your 3rd party tickets, or at least that has been the case up til now. As if January, it looks like the official site will sell tickets every Wednesday for the following week. It also looks like one can buy a ticket today, including one with an English tour, for any date in April on the official site. If you still prefer to go through a 3rd party like Viator or Get Your Guide (and pay more), you will need to go to those sites to see when they are selling tickets. In November and December, the third part vendors might not have had tickets for April.

Skip what line?

It is a timed entry, of a limited number of people, and you must got through a 'de-humidification' room before you entry the room with the Last Supper.

There is nothing 'skippable', that I know of (or can imagine.)

Shoeflyer,
Your reply makes a lot of sense. I knew there was something gamey going on. We have been looking for tix since Oct, our cisit to Milan is in mid April. Seems like the supply does not meet the demand, unless yoy pay extra…. Your post enlightened me to how it works. The main site for individual tix shows no availabiliy for our Apr date- but we will keep checking back. As a last resort, we may pay the “scalper” because we may never return to Milan. Thanks for your helpful post. and Happy Nea Year to you, and all who have posted !!
