Best Time to Visit the Statue of Unity

The site is open through the year, from Tuesday to Sunday. If you travel in summer, start early and finish the outdoor sightseeing before the afternoon heat.
Things to Know Before You Visit
The Statue of Unity is closed every Monday, so plan your dates so that Day 2 does not fall on a Monday.
Entry and viewing gallery tickets can be booked online on soutickets.in. Book in advance for weekends and holidays.
The statue visit ends at 6 pm and the laser show is later in the evening, so keep the evening of Day 2 free.
Outside food is not allowed inside the complex.
Wear comfortable walking shoes and carry a cap in the warmer months.
