Date confirmed when Tate Liverpool will close its doors for two years

A major Liverpool art gallery is set to close its doors in autumn ahead of a two-year transformation.

Tate Liverpool, situated at the Albert Dock since 1988, is set to undergo a £29.7 million overhaul which will see a number of its existing spaces redesigned. It has now been confirmed that work is set to begin in the autumn with the gallery closing its doors on Monday October 16 and remaining closed until its reopening in 2025.

Parts of the Liverpool Biennial will be one of the last exhibitions to run at Tate Liverpool ahead of its closure, with the festival taking over one of its spaces from June 10 to September 17, 2023. The gallery will also be extending its current JMW Turner and Lamin Fofana exhibition until September 24, 2023.
