Jodrell Bank Discovery Centre

With the infinite possibilities of our cosmos, space is a truly fascinating subject that ignites the imagination of young and old alike.

Whether you remember the Lunar missions of the 60s & 70s or have read about the first manned missions to the moon in over 50 years set to take place in 2026,  there’s understandably a renewed ‘Buzz’ around space exploration once more.

Jodrell Bank is a captivating visitor attraction combining science, history, and natural beauty and featuring the iconic Lovell Telescope—one of the world’s largest and most influential radio telescopes. 

You will be inspired by the interactive exhibits, workshops, and stunning gardens. As a UNESCO World Heritage Site and award-winning national attraction, Jodrell Bank uncovers the science and stories of deep-space exploration through various exhibitions and Dome shows (booked separately).

Nestled in a lush green landscape surrounded by farmland and wildlife, the centre consists of four pavilions, outdoor exhibits, and pathways to explore, along with two cafes and a gift shop.

 The perfect day out for space enthusiasts and curious minds alike, Jodrell Bank promises to inspire curiosity and ignite a passion for astronomy.
