Fusilier Museum slashes admission prices to help with cost-of-living crisis

From 1st January 2023, The Fusilier Museum, Bury has reduced its admission charges in a bid remain reasonably priced whilst cost of living pressures increase. 

The award-winning military museum has introduced the changes to ensure that the museum remains accessible to as many people as possible throughout. 

An adult ticket will now cost £4.95 instead of £6.95. Concessions have been reduced to £3.95 and a child £2.95 as opposed to £5.95 for both. The biggest saving is for a family ticket which has reduced from £22.95 to £12.95 making it more cost-effective for families to visit the museum. 

If declaring Gift Aid, admission also entitles the ticket holder to an annual pass so they can visit as many times as they wish within a twelve-month period. 

John Harwood, General Manager at The Fusilier Museum said, “ Many people will be questioning why we  are reducing admission prices when many businesses are in fact increasing them, but we feel it’s important to make the museum as accessible and affordable for all to enjoy in the current climate. Please support us and other small museums by visiting so we can keep the story of the Lancashire Fusiliers and Royal Regiment of Fusiliers alive for many years to come.”
