Twice a year, the Museum of Natural History and Pitt Rivers open after dark, hosting a range of evening activities. Come face-to-face with specimens and enjoy activities hosted by researchers, creatives, and collections staff.
Experience the Museum of Natural History and Pitt-Rivers Museum as you have never seen them before. Get close up and personal with specimens and artefacts not usually on display under our illuminated dinosaurs to take your own adventure with live music, talks, activities, tours and a bar.
