About Paradox Museum - London
Paradox Museum London flips expectations with 50 illusions across 25 themed rooms. Think tilted spaces, head-spinning mirror mazes, and walls that defy gravity. It is science and humor rolled into a playful, photo-perfect adventure.
Many illusions here are cooked up with neuroscientists and perception experts, so every mind-bender is backed by real science about how your brain decides what’s real.
The museum dives into real math puzzles like the birthday paradox. It shows how in a group of only 23 people, chances are higher than expected that two share the same birthday.
Inspired by Yayoi Kusama, the Infinity Room surrounds visitors with mirrored reflections and incorporates London-specific design elements, creating an experience that connects global art influences with the city’s visual identity.
Since opening, it has quickly become one of London’s fastest-growing interactive museums, drawing more than 200,000 visitors in its very first year.
