The Museum of Liverpool will be opening in July, National Museums Liverpool announced today.

With six months to go, the £72m project is continuing apace in time for opening, with internal fit-out of major galleries taking shape to such an extent that the three-phased opening has been reduced to just two.

The largest newly-built national museum in Britain for more than a century, the Museum of Liverpool provides 8,000 square metres of dedicated public space over three floors, two of which will be open in July

David Fleming, director of National Museums Liverpool said: “We’re very excited to announce that the Museum of Liverpool will be opening this coming July. Over the next couple of months, we will be able to set the exact opening date, which will give a real focus to the project and create a great buzz in the city. This will be one of the world’s great museums.”
