Tate Modern announced that it will extend the opening hours at the weekend in autumn.

As of September 26, the London Art Gallery will be opened on Friday and Saturday evening until 21:00.

The movement aims to give more visitors the chance to visit young people, especially after work.

Since 2016, the movement follows the success of Tate Modern Lates, a series of curated evening events that welcomed more than 750,000 people.

Tate Modern is normally opened at 10:00 and closes at 18:00 every day and is free to enter.

He said the late opening would make the gallery “even more accessible”.

The Mayor of London said the movement would help to strengthen London as “the cultural capital of the world, the best nightlife everywhere”.
