Bookings Office

The Bookings office is open 10am-4pm, Tuesday to Friday. Due to the reduced capacity in some parts of the museum, the maximum group size is 35 (including teachers/supervisors). Groups larger than this wishing to visit the museum are advised to book with at least a month’s notice, and the group’s entry into the museum will be staggered.

Cavan County Museum supports inclusive education and aim to meet the accessibility needs of all our visitors. Please let museum staff know at time of booking if there are any special needs that your group require when visiting the museum.

For more information please complete the booking form below and email or post back to the museum. For more information on group bookings including facilities, please see our “Planning your group visit” leaflet below.
