We’re celebrating the end of the season for our After Hours evenings at the museum. Our DJ booker, The Haze, who’s in charge of the After Hours line-up, invites you to a round-up. Together with resident DJs Flavah Nice, KDFA, Ribose, Shaka, Andon & VAA and many more, we’re going to party one last time. 

But that’s not all: it’s not just the last After Hours evening of the season, but we’re also celebrating the end of these events, which have been taking place at the museum for 15 years. But don’t worry, we’ll make sure there’s plenty to celebrate in the years to come. So, come along and raise a glass with us. Last chance to dance! 

And as always, the special exhibition Wildlife Photographer of the Year is open until 11 pm, with free entry.

The internationally recognised, award-winning nature photographer and environmental ambassador Prince Hussain Aga Khan is to be a guest at the museum. 

With his organisation, Focused On Nature, Prince Hussain is committed to the protection of biodiversity, threatened and endangered species, and fragile habitats worldwide — through the lens of photography, awareness, and education initiatives, and by supporting nature conservation projects. At the centre of his talk are stories of first-hand encounters with marine life, the threats they face, and the changes Prince Hussain has witnessed above and below the surface.

Focused On Nature advocates for global marine conservation—particularly marine protected areas (MPAs) and the protection of whales, dolphins, mobulids, sharks, and sea turtles—while inspiring the public to join these efforts through exhibitions and illustrated talks that highlight the beauty and vulnerability of our blue planet.
