National Science and Media Museum

"I love this place, I could spend days there. What was disappointing this time was, there were no new exhibits and the person signing people in was very insistent on visiting the Kodak exhibit. The wonderlab is always fun for those interested in basic science. The video game exhibit was closed."

"Was extremely over crowded on our last visit. Its quite silly now how it is because although its free u need to make a donation which is fine however u need tickets for different sections. The old style computer games area tickets had all gone and that's £2 per person to enter in there. Not as fun as it used to be. Better for older children rather than under 10s. Some of the sections were closed off."

"An amazing place to visit for either couples, families or friends wanting to know the history about Bradford and media from around the world. It’s free and easy to book online. Parking will need to be found a few minutes away near the uni but you should be able to get something for free. There is paid parking nearby. We went on the weekend and it was fairly quiet and plenty of staff presence The premises are immaculate, all items are displayed perfectly and there is lots of different options for everyone. Highly recommend to visit. A great place and really pleased it is in Bradford. There are people who travel miles for this museum and it is on our doorstep! Theres a great 80s gaming facility and it has street fighter pac man etc and it is £2 a session. Staff are friendly, donations are recommended but not mandatory. A fun, informative activity to do! Very nostalgic for those born before 2000’s!"

"Amazing place for a family day out! 6 floors of interesting galleries end exhibitions. To top it off an IMAX 3D experience. We watched "walking with dinosaurs" and it was awesome! Entrance to the museum is free but you need to book a time slots. And IMAX you have to book tickets for before hand as well and pay for them. There's a car park just behind the museum building and we paid £3 for 3 hours."

"This is a gigantic museum with a healthy variety of exhibits, most notably the ones about scientific principles. Examples of these are mirrors with different lighting, images that change when looked at from different angles and a screen that displays your body based on temperature. The moving images section is very interesting too, breaking down how pictures were used to create visual art with some nice showcases. On a similar note, there is an area dedicated to television, providing key information and also showing some classic characters! The bottom floor has content about computing and is appropriately made of glass; the displays deliver info such as the origins of keyboards and social media."
