This October will see the World Premiere of the first ever official exhibition about iconic superstar and legendary performer Prince. Opening on 27 October 2017 at The O2 in London, My Name Is Prince, will give fans the chance to get up close and personal with the music legend’s life and work, which will celebrate the legacy of one of pop music’s most influential figures, Prince Rogers Nelson.

My Name Is Prince will showcase hundreds of never before seen artefacts direct from Paisley Park, Prince’s famous Minnesota private estate. Visitors will get a unique insight into the life, creativity and vision of one of the most naturally gifted recording artists of all time.

Fans visiting My Name is Prince will have the chance to witness awe-inspiring exhibits including instruments, stage outfits, awards and handwritten song lyrics. Artefacts leaving Paisley Park for the first time in this unique exhibition include:
