Peter Stead
Great place to visit and especially with children. We went up the tallest revolving tower in the world 😯. This tower is part of the science museum. It is the tallest because all the tower can turn not just the top. Lots of interesting things to do in the science museum.
Gareth Baird
An absolute blast for every member of the family. Everything is interactive and educational. We saw an IMAX documentary and a planetarium show which may be a bit much for one day, I would recommend picking one out of the two The science shows are definitely a must though. We got food in the cafe which was reasonably priced and plenty of options. There are some indoor picnic spaces which are an option more places should have. All the staff were knowledgeable and friendly. We spent over 4 hours all in so it can be a full day out of you choose to make it that

It was amazing. All the science experiments were awesome. Kids enjoyed a lot and there are so many scientific experiments, you need entire day to explore all. Science show was also great and hosts Helen and David were great.

Exciting hands-on experiments. We attended a science show about air. This was very entertaining. 3 hours are not enough to see all exhibits properly. The architecture of the building looks cool. If you don't mind a 20 minutes walk you can park at the Transport museum which is easy to reach and parking is a bit cheaper. You can also watch the muriels. There is a small café at the Science Centre and the 3Dmax cinema. You can pay by card at the entrance to the Centre. The entrance fee is very justified. We did not need to wait but there were times when it was very busy too.
