Caribbean Connections at the London Transport Museum

Enjoy a great day out this May half-term at Caribbean Connections at the London Transport Museum

Celebrate Caribbean history and culture at London Transport Museum.

2026 marks 70 years since London Transport began recruiting employees in the Caribbean.

In 1956, London Transport launched a recruitment campaign in the Caribbean, inviting people to work on buses, stations, canteens and track maintenance. Their contribution shaped the city we know today.

Join us for a week of family-friendly activities that bring these stories to life:

• Creative arts and crafts inspired by Caribbean heritage
• Meet costumed characters and hear their fascinating tales
• Explore our exhibition Legacies: London Transport’s Caribbean Workforce

Discover how Caribbean communities helped keep London moving and enjoy hands-on fun for all ages.
