Night-time events in Museums and Galleries

SPREAD YOUR WINGS

Enjoy Lates throughout the year and during the Museums at Night festival!

Museums at Night is the UK-wide festival of Lates in museums and galleries, produced by Culture24, the Brighton-based arts charity dedicated to shining a light on Britain’s sparkling culture and heritage. The most recent festival took place from Thursday 25 – Saturday 27 October 2018.

Now Lates can be enjoyed all year round: we’ve updated our website to include events in museums, galleries, historic houses, libraries and archives across the UK throughout the year! We publish ticketed and free events starting after 5pm in just about any kind of non-performing arts venue.

Join the Museums at Night revolution: sign up to our free newsletter for updates and read the first ever reports into Museum Lates, produced by Culture24.
