The Sistine Chapel comes to London

The Sistine Chapel comes to London

Michelangelo’s Sistine Chapel: The Exhibition is landing at East London’s Bright and spacious - 1 American Square from May to September, and good news... you can leave your passport and suitcase at home for this one. It’s your golden ticket to soak up some Renaissance brilliance

right here in London, with zero Vatican queues or jet lag.


For centuries, visitors have craned their necks beneath the soaring ceiling of the Sistine Chapel. Now, licensed by the Vatican Museums and thanks to SEE Global Entertainment, visitors of all ages can get as close as 2 meters to the magnificent 34 frescoes, almost as close as Michelangelo himself. These full-scale installations let you spot every brushstroke and angelic eyebrow, all recreated with high-tech wizardry and photos from the 1994 restoration. It’s a fresh, up-close cultural adventure that’ll have you seeing the Sistine Chapel in a whole new light, all in about

60-90 minutes (so you’ll still have time for a cheeky post-exhibit coffee).

Experience the sheer genius behind Michelangelo’s masterpieces with artful storytelling and a free audio guide (Michelangelo himself is your narrator - sort of).


Whether you’re an art buff or just here for the vibe, don’t forget your headphones!


Download the Michelangelo Sistine Chapel app in advance, available at:

Apple App Store and Google Play. Bring your Friends, family and your art-curious neighbour, everyone’s welcome - From 19th May to 6th September 2026.


Tickets start at just £12 for kids (8+), £14 for concessions, and from £17.50 for adults. Nab yours via Fever: Book HERE.


Bonus London history alert: 1 American Square has a 32-metre stretch of Roman wall running right through its basement. Go on, have a peek while you’re there - two cultural icons for the price of one!


Address: 1, America Square, London, EC3N 2LB
