From Friday 1 April, York Museum Gardens will be open for everyone to enjoy for even longer, every day.
So, from next month, the main gardens will be open from 9am until 6pm, daily. They’re currently open from 10.30am.
That’s more time to admire the flowers, enjoy nature with friends, and marvel at St Mary’s Abbey and its important part in York’s history.
Steve Williams, York Museum Gardens Manager, said: “The whole team is thrilled to be able to open so that our community and visitors to the city can benefit from the tranquillity of our beautiful historic garden earlier in the morning. We realise just how important green spaces are for everyone’s wellbeing and the greater opportunity this provides to people to spend time in our Garden, and in providing access to and from the city centre”.
Access to York Museum Gardens is free for everyone. However, longer opening hours do add extra financial pressure to York Museums Trust. As a charity, every donation helps to ensure they can keep caring for the registered historic gardens and safeguard them for generations to come.
