Museum After Hours | 54321! ‘Standby for action, we are about to launch’
Friday 24 July 2026, 6.30 – 9pm | Worcester City Art Gallery and Museum
Standby for action as the first Museum After Hours of the year launches in celebration of the summer exhibition 54321 FAB! The exhibition brings Thunderbirds and friends to Worcester, with 1960s nostalgia at the forefront this year.
Enjoy a rockin’ Friday night with Jamie Hill, guitar-vocalist, performing classic rock and pop numbers including hits from the 60s. Jamie has been in love with music since he got his first guitar at the age of 6 and will take you on a rockabilly rollercoaster for the evening!
The bar will be open, so don’t forget to try a FAB themed cocktail: blast-off with a Stingray, or be brave and take on a Mysteron! 🍹
Free entry. Fancy dress encouraged!
