The Tate Modern will extend its weekend hours to 21:00 BST on Fridays and Saturdays starting 26 September. This initiative aims to provide more opportunities for visitors, particularly young people, to explore the gallery after work. The Tate Modern Lates series, successfully attracting over 750,000 visitors since 2016, will continue alongside the new hours. Director Karin Hindsbo emphasized the importance of these events in London's nightlife, while the mayor of London highlighted the significance of this move for the city's cultural reputation.
Karin Hindsbo, director of the Tate Modern, stated, "Over the last decade, Tate Modern Lates have become a cornerstone of London's nightlife, especially among young Londoners who want to make the most of their city's dynamic cultural scene."
The mayor of London noted that the extension of hours would help to cement London as the "cultural capital of the world, with the best nightlife anywhere."
The Tate Modern will open until 21:00 BST on Friday and Saturday evenings starting 26 September, boosting accessibility for after-work visitors.
