The Queen Is Dead 40th Anniversary Exhibition

Join us in celebrating the 40th Anniversary of Th­e Queen Is Dead!

Step back in time and immerse yourself into the world of Smithdom through an interactive Exhibition of over 250 original artefacts, spread across 13 unique Exhibits and over 4500 sqft!

There will be contributions from The Smiths’ Lighting Designer John Featherstone, as well as a special guest appearance by photographer Nalinee Darmrong.

We will also be unveiling a brand new piece of Smiths history, and giving fans the opportunity to take their photograph in front of the iconic World Tour Backdrop! YES, the actual backdrop behind Morrissey in the cover image! So go on with your best Moz impression, waving The Queen Is Dead placard and dancing around just as he had in 1986!

And to soundtrack your adventure, a selection of music by DJ Coralcola.

Please see the photos for further details, and follow us on Instagram @thesmithsmuseum for continued updates, information, and general Smiths goodness!
