Membership Benefits
Design is a continually evolving subject: your membership entitles you to unlimited entrance to exhibitions during the course of your subscription. Join as a Member Plus to bring a guest for free.
This year marks 30 years since the Design Museum originally opened its doors in a converted banana warehouse in Shad Thames. Members can join in the celebrations with £5 tickets for talks in 2019.
Members don't need to book tickets in advance to see exhibitions - simply show your membership card to gain entrance and skip the queues.
Members save 20% off food and drink, plus are eligible for a free tea or filter coffee from 10am-12pm and 3pm-5:30pm each day. Plan your visit to the Design Museum, and explore the range of facilities and activities on offer.
Take home a piece of iconic design from a unique selection of classic, beautiful and cutting edge products. Show your membership card to receive 10% off in the Design Museum Shop, or contact membership for your code to apply the discount online.
