UK’s Vagina Museum finds new location to bring back glittery tampons and period show

Earlier this year, one our reporters headed to a rather unusual museum in London. Layla Nicholson stepped from Bethnal Green station and down a back alley to the world’s first in-person vagina museum.

The Vagina Museum opened in the area just 10 months after relocating from Camden. The exhibitions – all themed around the female genitals – welcomed over 40,000 blushing visitors ready to learn about gynaecological anatomy and take snaps with a huge glittering tampon.

Home to the exhibition – Periods: A Brief History and From A to V – the cheeky museum was free to enter and open to the pubic… I mean public. However, sadly, in January 2023 the museum of all things lady garden was forced to close.

Given notice to vacate the premises at "short notice" due to being a property guardianship, those who worked at the Vagina Museum were devastated. Thankfully, it now looks like that wasn’t the end for "the world's first bricks and mortar museum dedicated to the gynaecological anatomy".

Which is lucky for anyone who wants to learn about everything from the camel toe to menstrual cups! Finally, those of us who missed out the first time could walk through its hallowed halls.
