We will make new plans for the future format of the grand event to make sure both the museums and the audience enjoy it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The next Museum Night will take place in 18 May 2024.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Museum Night is organised by Estonian museums and the Estonian Museum Association every year. The mottos of Museum Night were \u201cThings in the Night\u201d in 2009, \u201cStories in the Night\u201d in 2010, \u201cTreasures in the Night\u201d in 2011, \u201cCinema in the Night\u201d in 2012, \u201cPeople in the Night\u201d in 2013, \u201cStars in the Night\u201d in 2014, \u201cMusic in the Night\u201d in 2015, \u201cWaves in the Night\u201d in 2016, \u201cGames in the Night\u201d in 2017, \u201cNight of Parties\u201d in 2018 and \u201cNight of Patterns\u201d in 2019.\u00a0More than 102,000 museum visits were made on Museum Night in 2019.\u00a0 <strong>In August 2020, 181 museums and memory institutions participated in Museum Night.\u00a0The VEMU Museum of Estonians Abroad in Toronto participated digitally for the first time.\u00a0According to the feedback questionnaire filled by museums, approximately 42,500 visits were made to museums and other institutions on the evening of 29 August.<\/strong> The number of visitors is estimated because a few places did not provide their visitor counts. In 2020 the motto was &#8220;Time in the Night&#8221;, in 2021 Museum Night was cancelled due to COVID-19 pandemic. In 2022, the motto was &#8220;Dreams in the Night&#8221;, in 2023 &#8220;Movement in the Night&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Muuseumioo\">Museum Night on Facebook<br \/>\n<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/estonianmuseums\/\">Museum Night on Instagram<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-3866\" src=\"https:\/\/www.muuseum.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/muuseumioo-2022.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/muuseum.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/muuseumioo-2022.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/muuseum.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/muuseumioo-2022-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/muuseum.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/muuseumioo-2022-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/muuseum.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/muuseumioo-2022-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/muuseum.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/muuseumioo-2022-600x600.jpg 600w, https:\/\/muuseum.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/muuseumioo-2022-400x400.jpg 400w, https:\/\/muuseum.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/muuseumioo-2022-230x230.jpg 230w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Once a year, on a Saturday evening in May, museums and other memory institutions open their doors later than usual and free of charge to celebrate the all-European Museum Night.\u00a0The Estonian Museum Association has been organising Museum Night since 2009.
