London What's On

What's on at The Science Museum

There’s plenty to do this summer at the Science Museum. In the lead up to and during May half-term, visitors can embark on a cosmic adventure with a new trail, a collaboration with Disney & Pixar’s new film, Elio. This free activity invites visitors to explore out-of-this-world objects, including ones in our Exploring Space gallery before it closes on 2 June.

Announced today, Future of Food – a major new exhibition examining how science can help us find more sustainable ways to grow, produce and eat food – is to open at the Science Museum on 24 July 2025. With more than 100 historic and contemporary objects, from 3,500-year-old bread to McNuggets and cell-grown salmon, this exhibition asks what future we want for our plates and the planet.

Additionally, summer tickets are now on sale for Science Museum favourites, allowing families to catch the king of dinosaurs on one of the largest screens in Europe in our T.REX 3D documentary, play through the history of video games in Power Up, or see science in action in Wonderlab.
 
The museum is open 10.00-18.00, seven days a week. To pre-book a free ticket to the Science Museum, please visit this link. For further details about other galleries and exhibitions, please visit our See and Do page.
