We've partnered up with the Design Museum to offer you the chance to win 2x tickets to Wes Anderson: The Archives, as well as afternoon tea for two inspired by the exhibition!
The Design Museum has been granted unprecedented access to Wes Anderson’s personal archives, which the filmmaker has built up over three decades. This is the first time most of these objects will be displayed in Britain.
This landmark exhibition, open from 21st November 2025 to 26th July 2026, will chart the evolution of Wes Anderson’s films from early experiments in the 1990s to recent productions as well as collaborations with key long-standing creative partners. Explore the design stories behind award-winning and iconic films such as ‘The Grand Budapest Hotel’, ‘The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar’, ‘Fantastic Mr. Fox’ and ‘Isle of Dogs’.
Over 600 objects will bring together the director's meticulous craft of filmmaking through original storyboards, polaroids, sketches, paintings, handwritten notebooks, puppets, miniature models, dozens of costumes worn by much-loved characters, and more.
Together with a pair of tickets, you can enjoy a new beautifully crafted afternoon tea experience designed to complement your visit! At the heart of this whimsical experience is a playful take on the Courtesan au Chocolat - a standout centrepiece dessert that pays homage to one of the most memorable confections in Anderson’s filmography. Expect intricate layers, pastel tones, and just the right touch of drama.
