Egypt's $1 billion marvel: Arts24's exclusive look inside the Grand Egyptian Museum

11:55 Join arts24 presenter Eve Jackson on an exclusive journey inside the Grand Egyptian Museum – a colossal cultural masterpiece just a mile from the Great Pyramids of Giza. The museum's grand debut has faced multiple delays and was set to open this July, but ongoing tensions in the Middle East have pushed back the opening once again, making this your rare opportunity to explore its wonders ahead of time. After two decades and a billion-dollar build, this stunning museum showcases over 100,000 artefacts, including the full collection of Tutankhamun's treasures – reunited under one roof for the very first time. With cutting-edge restoration labs, sustainable design that cuts energy use by 60 percent and panoramic views of the ancient pyramids, this is more than a museum — it's Egypt 's bold statement to the world, bridging 7,000 years of history with modern ambition. Watch Eve uncover the stories behind colossal statues, revolutionary architecture and the experts bringing the past back to life.

Telling Gaza's story beyond the rubble

Culture 11:42 In this episode of Arts 24, Eve Jackson speaks with Arab Nasser, co-director of "Once Upon a Time in Gaza" – a striking, Cannes‑awarded film that reframes Gaza not through destruction, but through resilience, surrealism and cinematic boldness. Blending genre and personal memory, the film offers a hauntingly beautiful portrait of life under siege. Also featured: "Put Your Soul on Your Hand and Walk", a deeply moving documentary centered on Palestinian photojournalist Fatma Hassona, who was killed by an Israeli air strike on April 16, just one day after the film was selected for Cannes' ACID sidebar. Her death underscores the urgency and danger of documenting life in Gaza. This episode also examines a rare exhibition of Gaza's ancient treasures at the Arab World Institute in Paris – a powerful reminder that Gaza is not only a site of suffering, but also of civilisation and cultural legacy.
