Presale Tickets Launch for Obelisco Mirador Opening Nov. 1 in Buenos Aires

The city is partnering with a private operator to manage timed, limited-capacity visits under a five-year concession.

Overview

  • Public visits begin November 1 with daily operating hours from 9:00 to 17:00, and presale tickets are available now at miradorobelisco.com.ar.
  • Entry costs AR$18,000 for Argentine residents and AR$36,000 for non-residents, with 50% discounts for retirees and children and free access for children under four as reported by multiple outlets.
  • Visitors enter from Plaza de la República via the west-facing door on Av. Corrientes, ride a glass elevator in groups of four, then climb 35 spiral steps to the summit for an approximately 20‑minute experience.
  • Officials note the mirador is not accessible for wheelchair users or people with reduced mobility due to the monument’s dimensions, with a virtual-reality option in development.
  • Operations and maintenance were awarded to Unión Transitoria Autotransporte Andesmar for five years, with on-site ticket stands planned at Diagonal Norte and Av. 9 de Julio from the opening date.
