What a fun and well organised museum! So much to see and do, lots to keep children of all ages entertained. Free to enter but an additional charge for extra exhibits such as the 'Game Up' offering. We paid extra for this and it was well worth it, a huge history of Computers and gaming to interact with. Plus a massive selection of games to play at will. The variety of games from Disney, interactive, VR, 2 person games and 4 person games plus a great section of new games by young designers were well set out and maintained with help available if needed. Such a fun day out!

It’s a fascinating place that offers free entry and is packed with interactive exhibits, hands-on activities, and educational displays. Explore the history of Manchester’s industrial revolution, textile industry, and scientific innovations, including detailed cotton manufacturing machines, steam engines, and one of the first Rolls Royce cars. Great for all ages!

Visited on a Saturday at the beginning of October half term. Very interesting exhibits and cafe and shop. The room on the textiles was extremely interesting and interactive and gave a real sense of the period and the impact on peoples' lives. Free entry but donation expected. Seems to be big plans for development of the site over the next few years.

This is the best museum for all ages. Truly epitomizes how Manchester played a crucial role in development of science and tech. Visit here for a fun filled day with live demos, activities on top floor , see machines, textiles, understand how life evolved during these times … and a gift shop too plus a cafe. It is free to enter.

Really interesting place to visit for all ages. Free entry although they do ask for donations but no pressure can give at reception or using screens around building. Cafe toilets and gift shop on site. Really cool fun interactive things for the kids to do and fun for the adults. Very good talks about machinery computers etc. Shame only part of building was open due to works on a large section.
