A massive collection of David Bowie memorabilia will go on display at the V&A’s new east London location next year, including the star’s life-changing Ziggy Stardust outfits. The David Bowie Centre will open at the museum’s East Storehouse in the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park on September 13 2025, featuring more than 90,000 items from throughout the late music icon’s career. It comes after the V&A announced it had secured the archive last year, with the support of the singer’s estate, the Blavatnik Family Foundation and Warner Music Group.
