Update: Tuesday 23 June 2020
As it was announced today that museums and attractions can begin to open from 4 July, we wanted to update you about our plans for reopening.
We’re making sure we have everything in place so that when you visit it is as safe and enjoyable as possible. We won't be open on 4 July but as soon as our opening date is confirmed we will share this with you.
In the meantime we'd really appreciate your feedback by completing our survey to help us with reopening plans. We're looking forward to welcoming you back soon.
We can't wait to welcome you all back. Until then, visit us virtually and have a look around!
