All you museum buffs out there, take note. If getting the chance to experience even more culture, talks, exhibitions (and sometimes, just plain random things) during after-hours sounds like an absolute treat, you need to get involved with ‘Museums at Night’.
The latest offering takes place across the UK from Thu 25 -Sat 27 Oct 2018, with a series of seriously special events at some of London’s best galleries, museums and attractions.
Here are the most unmissable events from across the capital for you to check out a whole other side to London’s top cultural hubs.
What is Museums at Night?
Part of a UK-wide festival, ‘Museums at Night’ events across London give you a chance to see new and exciting parts of a number of world-class cultural institutions, after dark. Go behind the scenes and see London’s best museums in a very different way with specialist talks, unusual events and one-off exhibitions. This year, you can go on a Tudor treasure hunt, or attend a talk on medicinal plants. Or both.
Sounds good, when is it?
The latest edition, for the autumn season, runs from Thu Oct 25 - Sat Oct 27, while the next spring counterpart takes place from Wed 15 – Sat 18 May 2019.
And where is it being held?
Opening hours are extended in cultural institutions around London, with venues both big and small joining the late night celebrations.
