Please select an arrival time when you book your tickets for Power Up. Once you have entered the experience, you are welcome to stay for as long as you'd like. There are no set session times.
All children aged 16 and under must be accompanied by a paying adult as there may be some age restrictions on some of the games and experiences. Power Up is also intended to be a family experience, where all generations can enjoy the games and consoles together. Please select adult or senior tickets as well as child tickets when completing your booking.
Please ensure you also add free museum admission tickets when booking tickets for this experience.
These tickets help us to manage the volume of visitors throughout the museum and so we can create a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone.
We are limiting how far in advance tickets can be booked so that we can manage the number of visitors to both the museum and Power Up.

Free companion tickets are available for disabled people who require a personal assistant or carer to accompany them on their visit to the museum. If you need any further support to help plan your visit, please check our accessibility information or speak to a member of the team on 033 0058 0058 (line open 9.00–17.00 daily) or email info@sciencemuseumgroup.ac.uk.
