Tickets for the blockbuster Terracotta Warrior exhibition at Liverpool’s World Museum will go on sale next week.

China's First Emperor and the Terracotta Warriors features more than 180 spectacular artefacts from museums across Shaanxi Province, more than half of which have never been on show in the UK before.
