The Museum is temporarily closed for maintenance until Spring 2025.

25th March - 17th June 2023

The Force is strong at Torquay Museum! On March 25th 2023, from a galaxy far, far away comes an absolute must-see for all the family.

One of the UK's finest collections of vintage Star Wars toys and original cinema posters is now on display in the stunning exhibition May The Toys Be With You. Visitors will discover many rare treasures from this highly collectable toy line and enjoy the fantastical designs and art of the Star Wars movies.

May The Toys Be With You is both a celebration of the now highly collectable vintage toy line and also of the iconic design work and art of the Star Wars movies. From X-Wing Fighters to lightsabers, these fantastical designs have fired our imaginations and stamped their place on our cultural landscape. For little kids and ‘big kids’ alike this is an unmissable opportunity to view many rarely-seen Star Wars treasures. This exhibition has broken visitor attendance records at a host of museums around the country, and we’re excited for its visit to Torquay.
