The King's Gallery, Buckingham Palace

Nov25- what a fabulous little gallery. The curators were helpful and we had a semi-private tour with Little History of Sikhs on the Edwardians Style! Enchanting gallery. Wonderfully surprised by Queen Alexandra and likewise the enthusiasm by the curator for her! Thank you for a lovely morning

Such a beautiful gallery shop! Every corner is filled with unique artwork and handmade crafts. The staff were so friendly and happy to share the stories behind each piece. Perfect place to find a meaningful gift or just get inspired. Highly recommend visiting!

My Visit to The King’s Gallery, Buckingham Palace I really enjoyed my visit to The King’s Gallery at Buckingham Palace. The gallery is beautifully designed and showcases a stunning collection from the Royal Collection — including paintings, sculptures, jewelry, and historic artifacts. The displays are well-curated and informative, giving a wonderful glimpse into royal history and fine art. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the overall atmosphere was calm and elegant. It’s a great place to explore if you love art, culture, and history. The location next to Buckingham Palace makes it even more special, and the exhibitions are regularly updated, so there’s always something new to see. Highly recommended for anyone visiting London — definitely worth a stop after seeing Buckingham Palace!

What a fabulous gallery wonderful insight into the Edwardian era. Thank you also to Kira who gave an animated enlightening informative and passionate talk on Oscar Wilde. Remember you can also revisit within a year with your ticket.

Went for the Edwardian exhibition. Staff were really lovely, especially the young woman on the door. She was super friendly and helpful :) . The queue moved really quick and security was quick too, just a quick airport style bag scan. If you have large bags you can leave them in lockers. I didn't use the audio guide myself but lots of people did abs seemed to find it really useful. If you prefer to read like I do there are plenty of plaques around. Well organised and the collection was really well presented and grouped, so well done to the team that put the exhibit together. Just be aware that it gets quite busy quickly as some gallery rooms are on the smaller side. Good for an hours visit and ofc the state rooms and the 3 parks/ gardens are very close by.

Elegant, well-organised, and full of treasures Our visit to the King’s Gallery was part of the Royal Day Out ticket, which also included the Royal Mews and the State Rooms at Buckingham Palace — an excellent way to see three very different but equally fascinating parts of the Royal Collection. Visitor flow through each section was well managed, avoiding that “crowd shuffle” feeling you sometimes get at popular attractions. There was ample time and space to appreciate the displays, and plenty to see at every turn. The King’s Gallery itself houses some truly wonderful works of art. The curation felt thoughtful and balanced, with a mix of world-famous pieces and lesser-known gems. The included audio guide was particularly well done — concise but packed with insights, adding depth without overwhelming the visual experience. If you’re interested in art, history, or simply want a calmer, more intimate part of the Royal Day Out experience, the King’s Gall

Can be busy but if you can shut out the madding crowds, the art (depending on the title of the works being show) is remarkable. We saw the Edwardian Gallery. Timed ticketing - don't be late!

I visited on a Sunday afternoon to see a special exhibition. The gallery is small but has a pleasant and cozy atmosphere, making it easy to enjoy the artworks without feeling crowded. Even the restroom had a charming, vintage feel that matched the overall vibe of the gallery. The ticket is valid for a whole year, so I’m planning to visit again sometime soon. Visited in Jun 2025
