To celebrate our 40th birthday, we've put together a quiz to test how much you know about the Museum, our collection and the big facts from our history. How much do you know?

Our Museum Late: Night on the tiles is all about the history of London’s rich nightlife from Victorian music halls and night clubs, to subcultures which have influenced London and the world. The Museum of Youth Culture will also be joining us to talk about their latest collecting project, Grown Up In Britain.
