A pilot Home of Derry Girls exhibition is to open in the Tower Museum next month.
Funding of £80,000 was secure in January from Tourism NI and the Museum Services Programme for the exhibition which will touch on key points from the hit show.
It is hoped the pilot will lead to a longer term Derry Girls experience in the city.
The exhibition, and the Derry Girls Trail being developed in partnership with Visit Derry, will work alongside other assets such as the Derry Girls mural, filming location tours and Derry Girls afternoon tea experience, to firmly establish the city as the home of Derry Girls and generate greater interest in the DCSDC area as a major visitor destination.
In all 2.5m people tuned in to view the show on Channel 4 and it has gained a worldwide following.
