Get stuck into a free day of family activities at Thackray!

We are hosting a Baby and Toddler Takeover Day to celebrate 10 years of Baby Week Leeds with our friends at Child Friendly Leeds. That’s right, we want under-5s and their parents, carers, or guardians to enjoy exclusive access to the museum.

For one day only, there will be a baby first aid course, access to our Sparks soft play area, Story and Rhyme Time sessions, and more.

We know this can be thirsty work, so we are offering 25% off a hot drink and a cake from our locally-sourced café.

Limited availability. Pre-booking recommended.

    Accessibility

    Access to the museum

    We want everyone to enjoy the museum. It is fully wheelchair and buggy accessible, entry is free for essential companions, and we welcome assistance dogs (and our team are more than happy to arrange a bowl of water for hard-working thirsty dogs – please just ask).

    The museum offers quiet openings on the last Sunday of each month from 10am–11am when the lights will be up and the sounds down.  You can download a copy of our gallery map, which includes some sensory information and other details here.

    You can find more accessibility information by visiting our guide hosted on
    Visit Britain’s website.

    You can also download the PDF version of the guide.
