Pro tips to help you make a pick

Consider using the audio guide for deeper context, especially if you’re not already familiar with Picasso’s work.

Travel light, as large bags and backpacks must be checked in the cloakroom, so keep valuables in a small bag you can carry.

Check the museum’s website for current temporary exhibitions and family activities before your visit.

If you have mobility needs, ask staff at the entrance for accessible routes and allow extra time to navigate the historic building.

Photography rules vary by gallery. Look for posted signs and follow staff instructions to avoid surprises.

I'm a fan of Picasso's work, and it was extraordinary to see the evolution of his art. Even though it's a museum dedicated to just one artist, it never gets tedious because there’s an enormous variety of works and styles—from realism to abstract and cubism, sculpture, and even pottery, which is naturally possible because it's Picasso!

The paintings are displayed across several rooms in a fabulous building. A spectacular and uncrowded exhibition. The queue before getting in was a bit long, but it is of at least the same high standard as the Picasso Museum in Barcelona.

This is a great exhibition to find out about the personal and political life of one of the most famous artists in the world. It is exciting to see Picasso's drawings and sketches alongside stories of how he tried to save the lives of numerous Second World War resistance fighters who fought so bravely against naziism. Additionally, it is touching to look at how Picasso spent the first nine or ten years of his life and how immediately he displayed his artistic ability under the tutelage of his father who was also a very gifted painter. Picasso was obviously a much loved child who only survived his birth because of Uncle Salvador who blew cigar smoke on him which kickstarted his breathing. What a great afternoon we enjoyed absorbing every part of this fascinating exhibition. Piease don't miss it if you visit Malaga.
