Brighten up your winter holidays with a trip to the Science and Industry Museum.

Explore, create and play with free activities, science shows and hands-on challenges for all ages. Make shadow art, draw faces in the ‘Silhouette Station’, and play with colourful lights in a shadow skyline.

Visit the newly reopened Power Hall to see famous steam engines in action, then build your own in the Revolution Manchester gallery. You can also add tickets to ‘Operation Ouch! Brains, Bogies and You for even more brilliant, messy science fun.

A perfect day out for curious kids and grown-ups.
