Our Full Review of Glasgow Science Centre

Glasgow Science Centre on Pacific Quay is not a traditional soft play centre, but it deserves inclusion in any guide to children's indoor activities in Glasgow. The centre offers a small soft play area alongside its main attraction: hundreds of interactive science exhibits spread across multiple floors.

For families who want something more educational than standard soft play, Glasgow Science Centre delivers. Children can explore exhibits on topics ranging from space and the human body to engineering and the environment. Regular science shows add to the experience, and the friendly staff are always on hand to explain and engage.

The Science Passport offers unlimited annual visits, which represents excellent value for families who visit regularly. The on-site cafe and gift shop complete the experience. Located on Pacific Quay, the centre is accessible by car (with on-site parking), by subway from Ibrox station, or by several bus routes.
