Luke Jerram’s Museum of the Moon is coming to Campfield Studios in Manchester this autumn, according to the artist’s official tour schedule.

The touring artwork is a seven-metre internally lit sphere that uses detailed NASA lunar imagery at an approximate scale of 1:500,000 — so each centimetre of the sculpture represents about 5km of the Moon’s surface. Jerram’s team describes it as a fusion of lunar imagery, moonlight and a surround-sound composition by Duncan Speakman and Sarah Anderson, with host venues adding their own lunar-themed events beneath the work.

On the Museum of the Moon tour page, the Manchester stop is listed as Campfield Studios from 23 October to 8 November 2026. Tickets for the Campfield presentation are being sold via Eventbrite by organisers Form, with sessions described as limited. The venue address given for bookings is Upper Campfield Market Hall, Barton Street, Manchester M3 4NN.

Jerram’s site notes that editions of the Moon have been shown more than 350 times in over 40 countries, and that each presentation can shift how visitors read the piece — as science, culture or shared public spectacle. Prospective visitors should check the Eventbrite listing and the presenting venue for the latest session times before travelling.
