Opening times

Strangers’ Hall is open to visitors on Wednesdays 10am - 4pm and Sundays 1pm - 4.30pm. The museum will be closed for our annual deep clean from 23 December 2021 and will reopen during February 2022.

Booking your tickets

Booking is strongly advised owing to restricted numbers of visitors allowed in small room displays to ensure COVID-19 safety. It's best to book your tickets online.

You will need to book at least a day in advance of your visit and choose a specific day and arrival time for your visit.

Unsold tickets will be available on the door at the museum but we recommend you book in advance, as you will not be allowed into the museum unless sufficient unsold tickets are available when you arrive.

Timed entry

You will need to choose a specific time for your visit. The entry time on your ticket is not unique to you. Several ticket holders may have the same timeslot and you might need to wait until the admissions area is clear before you can enter.
