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.
You'll find outfits worn by artists from Freddie Mercury and Dusty Springfield to Adam Ant, the Spice Girls and Mick Jagger and musical instruments played by some of the world’s most renowned artists from Queen’s Roger Taylor and Ian Curtis. There's even have handwritten song lyrics from Adele, the original statues from the Brits and the Apple Corp front door from Saville Row.
You can also get hands-on in Dance the Decades studio, sing your heart out in our Vocal Booth, or play guitars and drums in the Gibson Interactive Studio. 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.
The current temporary exhibition is Girl Power! Spice Girls at 30. Charting the history of the most important girl band in British history. In March 1994 an ad was placed in The Stage asking "Are you street smart, extrovert, ambitious, and able to sing and dance?". The exhibition celebrates the story of how Sporty, Baby, Scary, Ginger, and Posh became one of the most successful girl groups ever and enjoyed phenomenal global success.
*Girl Power - Spice Girls at 30 is a collector's event and not an official Spice Girls exhibition.
