Whilst closed we’ve been reviewing our retail offer. When we open this week there will be the chance to buy stock at a reduced price. Please note we will be taking card payments only. To book your free ticket for the museum please go to https://t.co/kzxPHiPIGI

Thanks to all those people who filled in our survey about the reopening of the museums. Knowing what was important to you meant we could plan our offer with confidence. We can’t wait to see you all again.

[MonLife Heritage @Mon_Heritage]

To ensure our visitors feel at ease within the museums we have divided the museums into zones where you’ll only be with your household/bubble. So when you book your ticket it will say 1 space left. Please note this space can be used for up to 8 people.
