Current Prices — from 14 October 2020
Brighton Museum will be closed from 26 December. See our Covid-19 FAQ for more information.
Tickets will be released for online booking once we can confirm a reopening date.
Advance booking
We have introduced timed ticket entry and reduced capacity to ensure the safe distancing of visitors inside the museum. Visitors without a booking are welcome providing we have space to admit them.
Tickets can only be purchased up to two weeks in advance of your visit. This is so that we can be flexible in managing visitor numbers and respond to any changes in government advice. Tickets are now available up to Sunday 22 November.
For more information on the changes we have made to keep our visitors and staff safe during the Covid-19 pandemic see our Visitor FAQs.
