Hayley Minn has been a long-time fan of Madame Tussauds - but is the famous waxwork museum still as good in 2026? Somewhere along the way, the magic of Madame Tussauds seemed to have been replaced by queues, upsells and tired displays. So when Merlin Entertainments revealed it had slashed the value of Madame Tussauds by £262million, amid ongoing struggles faced by the business, I wasn’t too surprised. Despite the website clearly stating tickets start from £27 – a discount when you book online compared to £31 at the box office – it then said tickets start at £31 when I clicked through. She told me Ariana was her favourite model in the whole exhibition, and both confirmed the London Tussauds is the ‘best in the world’.
