Please read the appropriate note below for your group size, give us as much advance notice as you can and e-mail us with the following information:
The James Clerk Maxwell Foundation will use the information you send solely for the purposes of (i) arranging and contacting you about your visit; (ii) collecting visitor numbers by world region.
Admission is by advance e-mail request only. We will send you notification as to whether a place is available prior to the visit date. Please note unless we receive your request at least 48 hours in advance there is no guarantee that the venue will be staffed and open to visitors.
Provided you are able to give sufficient advance notice, special arrangements may be made for larger groups to visit. Group visits must be requested and arranged by a group spokesperson who intends to be present at the visit itself.
Requests from third party tour organisers will not be considered.
If you are travelling a considerable distance with a specific aim of visiting James Clerk Maxwell’s birthplace, e.g. for academic, scientific or historic reasons, requests for a visit by special arrangement may be considered if one of our hosts has availability during your stay in Edinburgh.
