British Music Experience

About

The British Music Experience tells the story of British Music through costumes, instruments, performance and memorabilia. Whatever age you are, and whatever you are into, there is something here for you.

The British Music Experience have introduced safety measures including timed ticketing, a one-way system, extra cleaning provision, hand sanitising stations and card payments. The open galleries and large spaces provide plenty of space for everyone to enjoy their visit. Your admission ticket will now be valid for 12 months so come back and visit all year. Please consider Gift Aid on your admission.

See outfits worn by artists from Freddie Mercury and Dusty Springfield, to the Spice Girls, Adam Ant and X Factor finalists and musical instruments played by some of the world’s most renowned artists from Noel Gallagher to the Sex Pistols. There's even hand written song lyrics from Adele, the original statues from the Brits and the Apple Corp front door from Saville Row.

You can also get involved. You can learn a musical instrument in the Gibson Interactive Studio with the best music equipment available, from electric guitars to drum kits and keyboards. Have a go at Dance the Decades with a dance instructor guiding you through to making your own dance video. Don't forget to stick around for a hologram performance.

After the main event browse an exclusive range of gifts, clothing, books and memorabilia from the Merch Store and you can rest those dancing feet with a selection of delicious snacks and meals in the Star Café.
