The statue has formed part of the displays of the Yorkshire Museum since its opening in 1830.

The 2006 exhibition Constantine the Great: York's Roman Emperor, which featured the head as its central piece, was described as "the most important archaeological-historical loan exhibition to have been held in a provincial British museum".
The curator Elizabeth Hartley was "the driving force" behind the exhibition, which attracted over 58,000 visitors.

In 2010 the Yorkshire Museum reopened after a twelve-month closure for redevelopment.
The new exhibition, "Roman York - Meet the People of the Empire" features the head as a central piece of the display.

In 2013 the head was loaned to exhibitions in Milan and the Colosseum to mark the 1700th anniversary of the Edict of Milan, returning to York in September of that year.

From July to October 2016, the bust was featured in an exhibition about Constantine's father Constantius I titled "Constantius: York's Forgotten Emperor", which centred on the Wold Newton Hoard.
