I Grew Up 90s

Encounter the decade's toys, video games, fashion, music & more...

Were you team Blur or Oasis? Do you remember THAT scene in Trainspotting?

A trip down memory lane awaits visitors to this summer-long celebration of all things 1990s. Featuring more than 200 iconic objects and artworks, the show recalls toys, video games, fashions, food, films and music from the decade of Cool Britannia. In the process, it calls to mind all manner of cultural treasures, from the Spice Girls and Lara Croft, to Pokémon and Power Rangers.

Encounter the toys, video games, fashion, food, film - and of course the music - that defined this awesome decade. Guaranteed to be a talking point for the whole family.

This exhibition has been curated by collector and cultural commentator Matt Fox.
