Welcome Tours

We run several free short tours daily. You'll visit key sites including the Lakeside, Sculpture Court and more – a great introduction to the Barbican.

Places are available to drop in to, on a first–come, first–served basis 15 minutes before the tour time. No tickets necessary. The tour starts outside the Barbican Shop on Level G.

These free, daily tours are scheduled to start promptly at 11.30am, 12.30pm, 1.30pm, 3.30pm, 4.30pm and 5.30pm. 

Please note that the 3.30-5.30pm tours on Saturday 2nd September are cancelled.
