## What visitors say

[Jordy Schaap](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/107988880989716909647/reviews) ★★★★★

I had a great, interesting afternoon here! Fantastic, friendly volunteers/staff walking around who are eager to share their knowledge about the objects and the city’s musical history. Truly a small hidden gem. In addition to ska, there is also a lot of attention given to other bands, artists, and music styles from the area, which makes it even more interesting. Unique objects, and everything is well laid out and easy to view. Definitely worth a visit.

A huge amount of fascinating memorabilia from Coventry's musical history. There's a new Hazel O'Connor exhibit, lots of Two Tone stuff including the Ghost Town car, and so much more. Very friendly, knowledgeable all volunteer staff. Highly recommended. Parking around is a little difficult but there's a small NCP app car park on Walsgrave Road which will cost you 95p for 2 hours.

Amazing little museum packed to the ceiling (literally) with fantastic items most of which have been donated by the stars themselves or their families. Well worth a visit if you are in the area. We will definitely visit again.
