Celebrate Pride Month in style and join us at this joyous Soane Late exploring objects which have LGBTQ+ connections in Sir John Soane’s eclectic collection.

Uncover stories relating to queer lives and identities as you roam the collection by candlelight. Our expert guides will illuminate these hidden histories by highlighting objects including a bust of Sappho and objects purchased by Soane from the notorious William Beckford, as well as narratives such as the life of Soane’s grandson Frederick. 

  • The whole Museum, beautifully illuminated, will be open for you to explore, with our expert team on hand to share remarkable tales of Sir John Soane's life and collection.
  • We encourage photography at these events and if you are sharing your images on social media, tag us @soanemuseum on Instagram and X or use the hashtag #PhototheSoane, and we'll share your shots to our Stories.
  • Admission includes a glass of wine or prosecco in the Library-Dining Room.
  • Tickets are available for arrival at either 18:00, 18:30 or 19:30. The event finishes at 20:30
