What's on

Uncover stories of our historic site while exploring our new garden, featuring plants, trees and flowers that have been carefully selected to represent the goods that would have once been transported here on the railway.

What will you build, sense and discover? Play and explore science in action in Experiment, our free interactive gallery designed for the whole family to enjoy together.

Manchester is built on cotton. Our Textiles Gallery tells the story of the people, products and pioneers that made it and their continuing legacy in our city and our world today.
