About the double-pass ticket: Double-pass tickets will be available for visitors to view both Facing Modernity and Archibald Prize 2026 in a single visit from 5 September to 20 September. Each individual visitor wishing to view both exhibitions must purchase their own double-pass ticket — they cannot be shared between two people. Double-pass tickets can be booked online and in person.  About the multi-pass ticket: Multi-pass tickets are designed especially for local Greater Shepparton residents and Friends of SAM members, enabling flexible entry to both Facing Modernity: Degas to Picasso and Archibald Prize 2026 at any date or time from 23 May to 1 November 2026 for a total of five visits. Multi-passes can only be purchased in person at the Ticket Desk located on SAM’s ground level. Your multi-pass will be validated by SAM Staff upon each use until your five admissions have been exhausted. A visit to Facing Modernity: Degas to Picasso and Archibald Prize 2026 on the same date will count as two admissions on your pass. Multi-pass tickets are non-transferable — they cannot be shared by multiple people.
