Welcome to the Mid-Antrim Museums Service. 

This regional service comprises four museums that together reveal much about mid-Antrim and its people. Its rich cultural diversity is reflected in the collections held by the museums in Ballymena, Carrickfergus, Larne and Newtownabbey.  These modern museums explore a range of subjects from social and industrial history to war and conflict.  They also provide a lively and ever-changing programme of temporary exhibitions and special events.
