Eureka! Science + Discovery is a hands‑on attraction for children and young people up to 14, packed with interactive exhibits to discover how Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics influence and shape our lives - connecting the everyday with the extraordinary.
Where is Eureka! Science + Discovery?
You’ll find the museum at the refurbished Seacombe Ferry Terminal. Hop on a River Explorer Cruise from Liverpool Gerry Marsden Ferry Terminal (Pier Head) or from Seacombe and enjoy iconic waterfront views on your way to a brilliant family day out. Cruises run daily and operate hourly from both terminals.
The Eureka! Science + Discovery Experience
Start your visit off at the Body section to discover the wonderful ways our bodies keep us going. Take a peek at what is inside us, battle against robots to see how we compare, and take on the role of the digestion system to turn our food into poo - don’t forget to flush afterwards!
Next, head upstairs to the Homes section to explore all the things that are a part of the fabric and space within our houses. Wonder through each room in the house, from living room to bedroom, and bathroom to kitchen. Find out how your cat communicates with you and see if you’re up to the challenge of catching the string before them. Have a boogie to your own music at the bathroom DJ set, and in the kitchen, you can enjoy a giant cuppa and a piece of toast as you learn how kitchen appliances work.
Before leaving the homes section, make sure you say hello to Luna, Eureka!’s giant house cat.
The next part of the experience is the fascinating Nature section, where you can explore everything you need to know about animals and the climate. Take a look at the Amazing Inventions corner to get your brains working up some wacky and wonderful inventions, like swimming goggles for dogs! Whilst in the nature section you can take a rest in the Nest and enjoy footage of actual wildlife (sadly there is no David Attenborough commentary) or reach new heights in the Climbing Tree.
