Not normally open to the public, Acton Depot open weekends are a fantastic opportunity to see some of the hundreds of thousands of treasures kept in the working museum storehouse.
What to expect
The depot open days take place three times a year, in April, June and September. This April’s theme is A Transport Celebration, marking an astonishing 200 years of the UK’s railways and 25 years of Transport for London. It’s a rare opportunity to see historic vehicles and enjoy behind-the-scenes mini tours, expert talks, family-friendly activities, special displays and demonstrations and more.
Tickets for Acton Depot Open Weekend
Tickets must be booked in advance and cost £19.00; children under 18 go for £10.00 (and free for under 3s). Children 15 and younger must be accompanied by an adult.
Organisers may cancel events, alter schedules, or change admission requirements without notice. Always check official sites before heading to an event.
