Notes | |
---|---|
a | First year as ALVA member |
b | 2013 comparator not available because The Library of Birmingham only opened in September 2013; 2014 was the first full year of operation. |
c | Reviewed a number of our discount schemes |
d | National Museum of Scotland's fall in numbers: "Ten galleries closed to public for capital redevelopment." |
e | Revamped Treasures Gallery, exhibitions reaching new audiences (Comics Unmasked, Gothic Imagination etc) |
f | NGS switched from manual counting to electronic counting in April 2014, therefore uplift in figures is partly due to this |
g | Estimated % increase from 2013 |
h | The new First World War Galleries at Imperial War Museum London saw almost 1 million visitors in just 6 months (153% increase on the same period in 2013) |
i | Closed 2013 |

k | June festival weekend (12,000 visitors) did not take place in 2014 |

o | Note: -20% as Tate St Ives was closed for building works from January to May 2014 |
p | N.B. closed for conservation and redevelopment of site on 3rd November. |
q | Due to the Gallery being closed for two periods of refurbishment work in 2014. Totalling 8.5 weeks between 28 July - 12 September and from 13 December (until 15 January 2015), this represented 16% of the calendar year. |
r | Introduction of new facilities in July 2014 |
