blockbuster exhibit
Crowd-drawing museum show
A blockbuster exhibit is a museum or gallery show designed to draw massive crowds, typically featuring famous works, celebrated artists, or popular themes.
These exhibitions often involve loans from major institutions, heavy marketing, and timed tickets: The Tutankhamun blockbuster exhibit broke attendance records.
The term borrows from film industry usage, where blockbuster means a huge commercial success.
