DOORS: 18:30 | FILM STARTS 18:55

Step inside Bristol Museum & Art Gallery for your very own “Night at the Museum” to enjoy a truly special movie screening. Enter this magnificent space after hours, enjoy live performers and then take your seat in the Rear Hall to watch the film among the exhibits. 

This March we’re showing the quintessential museum-based family adventure, Night At The Museum. Before the screening, you can meet our very own animatronic dinosaur, and see if you can do a better job at taming him than Ben Stiller manages in the film!

About The Film

2006 | PG | 104 mins

When Larry Daley gets a job as a nightwatchman at the American Museum of Natural History, he soon discovers that a magical Egyptian artifact brings the exhibits to life at night. As he learns how to control the chaos every night, Larry must also contend with some thieves who want to take the artifact for themselves, thereby threatening the “lives” of all of the Museum’s inhabitants.

About The Location

Located at the top of Park Street, Bristol Museum and Art Gallery is a truly stunning space. Since opening in 1871, the Museum has been the home of a range of fascinating exhibits, including, the Bristol dinosaur, the Bristol Boxkite - which can be found in the Museum’s impressive entrance hall - and Banksy’s ‘paint-pot angel’.

The Museum is of Edwardian Baroque architecture and has been designated as a Grade II listed building. Throughout the year, Bristol Museums runs a series of temporary exhibits, events and activities, details of which can be found on their website.
