Plug In and Play this October Half Term

The National Videogame Museum will come to life with Plug in and Play, an exciting new programme for October half term.

Open every day from the 26th October - 3rd November, connect with the Museum in brand new ways as Plug In and Play introduces activities for all the family that combines fun, art and playful technology.

Code a mini robot, make it move and navigate a miniature obstacle course inspired by classic games like Frogger and Mario Kart.

Steer through loops, avoid trees and jump over ramps – obstacles which will all be created, designed and crafted by visitors throughout the half term holiday.

A new suite of games, inspired by nature, will also be activated on the gallery floor. Get comfy, plug in and play a range of classic and contemporary videogames exclusively available throughout the half term holiday.

Plug In and Play then extends to Rotherham in an action packed adventure trail for all the family to enjoy between the 31st October - 2nd November.

Created in collaboration with the Children's Capital of Culture, journey through eight locations taking part in unique activities, seeking out retro games to play and go beyond the screen to re-enact classic videogames in live action fun.
