About Hidden Spaces Tours

Step beyond the gallery walls and into the hidden heart of Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery. Our 'Hidden Spaces Tours' offer a rare opportunity to explore areas of the building that are usually closed to the public — including storerooms, tucked-away corridors, and architectural gems often overlooked.

Join our expert guides as you:

  • Wander through off-limits spaces
  • Soak in the incredible Victorian architecture from a new perspective
  • Hear about recent and upcoming renovation projects
  • Encounter a few collection superstars along the way
  • Enjoy quirky tales from Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery's colourful past — from mysterious goings-on to hidden passageways

The building itself is one of our most fascinating artefacts — come and experience it in a whole new light.

Spaces are limited. Book now and uncover the hidden history of Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery.
