⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had a fantastic day out at Magna Science Adventure Centre and would highly recommend it to families. We chose to add Gift Aid to our tickets, which means we can return as many times as we like for a whole year, making it excellent value for money. The highlights for us were the Big Melt, which was an impressive spectacle, the fire tornado and wind tornado demonstrations, and the working JCB bucket arms that visitors can operate themselves. The hands-on exhibits really help bring science and engineering to life and kept both children and adults engaged. The centre does a great job of combining education with fun, and the industrial setting gives it a unique atmosphere. There is easily enough to fill a full day, and with the annual return option we'll definitely be back again. A brilliant family attraction that's well worth a visit. 🚜🔥🌪️🔬
My 2 year old loves Magna, she always talks about it. Value for money is there with the annual pass. The areas have fantastic interactive games. She went bananas for the find and seek game, love this idea. The outdoor play area is second to none. However, some of the demos need some maintenance as they don’t work correctly, and we are yet to see the live demo of the iron works at the fire area despite visiting 3 times. But I’m struggling to knock a star off because we still love it.
My family and I had a great time here today. My 6 year old daughter absolutely loved it and spent a long time engaged with the activities- especially the mining in the Earth zone and the pneumatic tubes in the Air zone. She also really enjoyed the Science Show and chatted excitedly about the experiments she saw! There were a couple of broken exhibits/activities but even with this, there was still plenty to do and we easily filled a whole day, especially with a visit to the adventure park afterwards. All the staff we spoke to were very helpful and friendly and provided excellent service.
Great day out, good for the kids to learn some of the fundamentals of the the main elements of earth, air, fire and water. Set inside an very interesting building thats fascinating to see on its own. Big outdoor play area too, good to see they had three lifts and not just one for getting between the different floors. Good value as standard price is for an annual pass.
We visited Magna for the first time with our daughter and found it such an enjoyable experience for all the family. Each zone provides fun learning and hands on experience. The staff are super friendly and passionate about what they do. The outside play area is also fantastic and look forward to returning in the spring to enjoy it more.
