What people are saying about us
Hear from educators, families and corporate group experiences at Xplore! Science Discovery Centre
I had an amazing time at Xplore!, my 6-year-old granddaughter was captivated. The theatre presentation on Dinosaurs & Volcanoes was superb. Children of all ages were fascinated. I would absolutely recommend a visit.

Grandma
We loved it, my children are almost 2 and 3 and they enjoyed all the activities. Myself and my partner thoroughly enjoyed it. We bought annual passes so we will be regular visitors. Staff were lovely and helpful. Can't wait to go again.

The workshops and activities arranged were extremely well matched and accessible to all of our learners. They linked well with the skills within the New Curriculum for Wales.

Katie and the team couldn't have been more helpful and made sure that we were well looked after and catered for. I'd highly recommend Xplore Science as a venue for your next event/meeting.

We used Xplore! for our recent Wrexham Tourism Forum. The city centre location was perfect for delegates from around North Wales. It was easily accessed and with a great choice of car parking nearby. The theatre space was incredibly modern, with first class AV and audio and acoustics.

Lovely helpful staff who all help to make it a most enjoyable experience. I've taken my 2 grandsons (aged 9 and 6) many times and we've never been bored.
