AND WE CAN'T WAIT TO WELCOME YOU BACK |
We're delighted to tell you that this August, four of our five museums will be open again.
From 1 August, IWM London, IWM North, IWM Duxford and Churchill War Rooms will reopen. We have made a number of changes to ensure your visit is safe and enjoyable.
One key change is that we've limited the number of people that can visit, to give you even more space to explore the fascinating stories housed in our museums. Therefore we strongly encourage you to book a timed ticket before visiting. We will release tickets to the general public at 12 noon on Wednesday 15 July.
Can't wait until Wednesday? IWM members get priority booking for all our museums, as well as free entry to Churchill War Rooms, IWM Duxford and HMS Belfast. Click here to become a member and reserve your space today.
Visitors returning to IWM London will be also be welcomed back by a brand new addition to the museum’s iconic atrium – a commission from the internationally renowned artist Ai Weiwei, titled History of Bombs.
Covering over 1,000 square feet, Ai Weiwei’s takeover of the museum’s atrium is the first time that the space has been given over in its entirety to an artist. Click here to find out more. |

WHAT ABOUT HMS BELFAST? |
HMS Belfast is a unique space which is mostly unaltered since its operational days. Visitors climb ladders, walk through narrow corridors and small rooms. Therefore it is currently not possible for visitors to adequately socially distance. We will assess this regularly and hope to welcome you on board soon.
