Join us for an exciting opportunity on either Friday 13 th or Saturday 14 th of May to explore for yourself what the museum galleries look like by torchlight.

Discover new things or perhaps even things you’ve seen before, but in a new way as you journey through the Museum after dark, lead by a one of our friendly guides. This event is sure to be fun for all, so why not bring your friends and family along for a unique look into the past.

Laura Hardisty, Marketing Officer at Colchester and Ipswich said, “This is a unique opportunity to see the museum after dark in a completely different light, depending on where you point your torch! These events have been enormously successful with young and old who want to explore the museum in a completely different way.”
