Alexander McQueen's London exhibition is set to run through the night due to huge demand for tickets.
The Victoria & Albert Museum will release a further 12,000 tickets for the final two weekends of "Savage Beauty," WWD reports. The museum will stay open all night for the weekends of July 24-26 and July 31-August 2, serving visitors refreshments at the bar into the wee hours.
According to V&A director Martin Roth, it is the first time the museum has stayed open around the clock.
Since opening on March 14, 345,000 people have visited the exhibition, which has become the most popular paid show at the museum for the last 10 years.
"Savage Beauty" will run through August 2.
