On Saturday, May 13th, a landmark event in the world of Pink Floyd took place. At London’s historic Victoria & Albert Museum (V&A), The Pink Floyd Exhibition: Their Mortal Remains opened to the public, bringing the world of the band to fan and casual observer alike. As with any such exhibition, the creators had to ensure they were not just preaching to the converted, but providing an absorbing, illuminating and compelling experience to all audiences. Covering 50 years or so of a band with the richness of Pink Floyd’s music, staging and design was never going to be easy, so the opening of TMR, finally, has come at the end of what seems quite a development process.

We know a number of you have already attended the exhibition, and more are planning to go - or go again! The organisers have today revealed that with over 300,000 visitors since the opening in May, it is on track to be the biggest music exhibition at the V&A, ever! Due to the unprecedented visitor numbers, including members of Pink Floyd, as well as Madonna, U2, Guns ‘n’ Roses, and others, The Pink Floyd Exhibition: Their Mortal Remains will be extended by two weeks and will now close on October 15th, 2017.

Tickets for the extended period of the exhibition are on sale now. Tickets (subject to booking fees) are priced at £20 (Monday-Friday), £24 (Saturday-Sunday), and concessions, including family tickets at reduced prices, are available. V&A Members go free. Advance booking is very strongly advised. Tickets can be purchased from Ticketmaster, Seetickets, direct from the V&A at vam.ac.uk/pinkfloyd, by calling 0800 912 6961 (booking fee applies), or in person at the V&A itself.
