I see from the website that I qualify for a special reduced admission price for the Pre-Raphaelite exhibit. Do I need to purchase it in advance or can I purchase it once I arrive? I am so excited! Thanks!

I will be visiting London this fall (2017) and am a big Beatles fan. Can you tell me where the portrait of Paul McCartney is located in the gallery and also if you have any other items related to the Beatles? Thanks

Hi There are many ortaits of sir paul there. Be sure to lok in store for postcards and photos and posters from2015 Photography Exhibition. On Beatles. Think you can purchase. I advise ask at front desk as there are rooms that are closed for installation s And they will know how to vetter direct you. You WILL see many paintings. They have the Humprrehy OCean one From WINGS. Have fun. Hope this helps you.

Very good question and something that confused me. I've always attended the national gallery for free. The National Portrait Gallery has a free area but also paid exhibitions which I attended. They are separate from my knowledge but worth investigating if you can get a ticket that covers both to see all exhibitions - which makes sense
