The World of Tim Burton Tickets

The World of Tim Burton | 25 October 2024 – 21 April 2025

Delve into the fantastical world of Tim Burton in this major exhibition at the Design Museum, exploring his remarkable creations and key collaborations with designers.

Tim Burton is the creative force behind some of the most celebrated films of the last four decades, internationally recognised as a master of the comically grotesque and the endearingly misfit.

This major exhibition will invite visitors into his world through an exploration of the design of his unique aesthetic. While most well-known for his cinematic work, this show will display the full extent of his production as an illustrator, painter, photographer and author, as well as exploring key collaborations with designers. As a multi-disciplinary artist, his creations extend beyond the limits of mediums and formats.

Drawn from Tim Burton’s personal archive and representing the artist’s creative output from childhood to the present day, this collection of drawings, paintings, photographs, sketchbooks, moving-image works, sculptural installations, set and costume design focuses on the recurrent visual themes and motifs found in the distinctive characters and worlds found in Burton’s art and films.

This will be the final stop in a decade-long world tour for this exhibition and will be its only ever showing in the UK.
