The MyPompeii Card is an annual pass designed for enthusiasts who want to visit the Pompeii Archaeological Park multiple times throughout the year. For a flat fee—currently around €45 for adults and significantly less for EU citizens under 25—the card provides unlimited admission for one year to all the sites within the park's jurisdiction, including Pompeii, Oplontis (Villa of Poppaea), Stabiae, and the Boscoreale Antiquarium. Beyond just entry, cardholders become part of the "MyPompeii Community," receiving early notifications about new excavations, invitations to meet the Park Director, and access to an exclusive app that helps track crowd levels in real-time. It is a highly cost-effective option if you plan to visit for more than two days, as a standard single-day ticket to the main ruins can cost nearly half the price of the annual pass itself.
