See what's on for familiesDo I have to buy my tickets in advance?
No. As a Member you do not need to buy tickets in advance, or book a timeslot. Simply show up with your Membership card to visit the exhibit. Even if the show has sold out.
How can I attend an exhibition if it’s sold out?
Being a Member means that you can see the exhibition, even if it's sold out.
When can I start coming to exhibitions as a Member?
Right away. Your Membership is valid immediately from the moment you purchase your Membership.
What's the difference between a Plus Guest and Extra Card Membership?
A Plus Guest Membership allows you to bring any one guest with you to exhibitions and the Members' Room.
An Extra Card Membership is for two people. You'll name a second Member during purchase who will enjoy all the same benefits as you, apart from the V&A Magazine subscription. Each of you will be able to bring one guest into exhibitions and the Members' Room.
Can anybody use the Extra Card Membership?
No. Only the person named on the Membership card can use that Membership card. We will ask for the Extra Member details on sign up and ID may be required to enter exhibitions and the Members' Room.
Both Extra Card Members can bring one guest to exhibitions.
How do I visit a Members' morning view?
You must book a ticket to visit on a Members' morning view as these are outside of public opening hours. The Membership team regularly arranges Members' morning views for all exhibitions. These are listed as 'events' on the respective exhibition webpages, and can also be found on the Membership Events programme page. Tickets need to be booked in advance online.
How do I visit a Members' preview?
We recommend booking for Members' Previews if you wish to enter an exhibition at a specific time, but it is not essential. You can book for Members' Previews (from the first of the month in which an exhibition opens) on the Membership Events programme page.
