Spaceport

If you’ve ever wondered what it’s really like in space, a visit to Liverpool’s Spaceport might be the closest you’ll get to answers, with a planetarium and a series of intergalactic galleries, exhibitions and multi-media displays. A fun choice for a family day out and a key stop on Liverpool’s hop-on hop-off Mersey River Explorer Cruises, Spaceport’s hands-on discovery zones and interactive exhibits are suitable for all ages. 
Highlights include a space simulator ride, a planetarium show in the panoramic dome and special exhibitions dedicated to space-traveling TV show characters like Dr Who (including a life-size Tardis and a huge collected of costumes from the TV series) or Wallace and Gromit.
