British Museum Exhibition Tickets Now on Sale

Today the British Museum released tickets to the upcoming major autumn exhibitions Tantra: enlightenment to revolution and the Citi exhibition Arctic: culture and climate. Both exhibitions were delayed from earlier in the year due to lockdown, and both will have extended runs to allow more people to see them. These are the first temporary exhibitions the Museum has held since it reopened.

Tantra: enlightenment to revolution, opening on 24 September 2020, will be the first major exhibition in the UK focusing on the history of Tantra and its global impact.
