Need to know
Photography helps families understand what to expect at our events and shows funders the great work we do. As such, a museum photographer may be present to take pictures. No need to preen or pose, just play!
The museum is open every day 10am – 5pm.
If you have time, why not also visit our free galleries and get more in-depth with Docklands history? And don't forget that under-12s get free entry to our Secrets of the Thames exhibition with fascinating finds from our city's foreshore.
Our address is London Museum Docklands, No. 1 Warehouse, West India Quay, London E14 4AL. We're just a few minutes away from Canary Wharf and West India Quay.
