Hongkongers who idolise Cristiano Ronaldo will get soon the chance to visit a museum dedicated to the football star in the heart of the city. This is all thanks to the CR7 Life Museum, which will have immersive experiences that pay tribute to the life and career of one of the world’s most famous footballers. The museum is set to open for a year starting early July 2025, and tickets will go on sale from next month.
CR7 Life Museum in Hong Kong
According to Trip.com — which is supposed to be one of the official ticketing partners for the museum along with Klook — Hong Kong’s CR7 Life Museum will be open to visitors from July 7, 2025-July 5, 2026, at Shop No. 605, Level 6, K11 Musea in Tsim Sha Tsui. Media reports say that sales for VIP and early-bird tickets will open at 7 pm on February 5, which happens to be Ronaldo’s 40th birthday. General admission tickets will be available from February 24 and priced at HK$180 (adults) and HK$150 (children), with 10% off for early-bird purchases.
The sprawling museum will be spread across 12,000 square feet, and will house 3D displays showcasing Ronaldo’s accomplishments, engaging football activities, and a photo spot. Reports also state that fans who buy specific VIP tickets can bypass long lines, get their hands on limited-edition merch, gain entry to special zones within the museum, or be part of guided tours. Those who spring for an “ultimate VIP experience” can enter the museum two days prior to the official opening.
Other Cristiano Ronaldo museums
Ronaldo has a permanent CR7 Museum in his hometown of Funchal on the Portuguese island of Madeira. Visitors can view the famed forward’s most iconic awards, notably his four Golden Boots and five Ballons d’Or, as well as every club trophy he’s won. A CR7 Signature Museum also opened in late 2023 in Riyadh, where Ronaldo has been spending time playing for Saudi Arabian football club Al Nassr.
The football legend was last in the region in January last year for two Al Nassr exhibition matches in Shenzhen. However, fans were left disappointed when he didn’t come to the pitch due to a muscle injury. This was followed by Argentina star Lionel Messi’s no-show during an Inter Miami-Hong Kong friendly match because of a leg injury, though he did play at a game in Japan a few days later.
