I couldn't agree more. Free museum entry drives up attendance, it's great for school children and it allows us poor backpackers to learn about and enjoy other cultures. Thanks for your clarification. It's much appreciated. -Jaime Thanks Karen!

Virtually all museums in London are free every day, this goes for the rest of the country too. Like Jaime mentioned special exhibits sometimes require a fee but they're normally touring items and the main sections are better anyway, in my opinion. I think this itself was one of the best decisions made as the very first time I visited London at 14 some of them still charged, now they are much more heavily used and a great resource for local children.

As far as I know they're free everyday. They often have special exhibits, which you have to pay to enter but otherwise the main exhibits are always free!
