Family Activities

We don't just want you to visit the Beatles Story, we want you to experience it. Our fun trail bag includes crayons, a pencil and trail map to keep the little ones entertained whilst mums and dads enjoy the exhibition. Half terms and summer holidays see our fun-packed programme of workshops for kids (and parents!) to take part in - you can see more details about them here.

Drive my car Our Discovery Zone offers five exciting activities to get young (and old) Beatles fans involved. You can make your own Merseybeat newspaper, with your photo on the front page, using ‘Paperback Writer', get grooving in our replica NEMS music store, test your knowledge in our timeline quiz, Drive my Car; create a masterpiece in the style of John Lennon in our Lucy in the Sky art area and see if You Can Work It Out on our giant floor piano.

So - whether it's a fun packed trip around the Discovery Zone or you drop in to a special workshop - there's always something hands on for families to do at the Beatles Story. 

Please note the Discovery Zone is booked out for school school visits during term time. Please check in advance of your visit if the Discovery Zone is open.
