About

Make sure to add Discovery Museum to your The Late Shows itinerary for collaborative musical fun - and golf!

Visitors can stand on musical sensor pads in unison to unlock and layer the music in real time, revealing its full power when people work together. 

Seven Bridges is an interactive music installation inspired by the River Tyne’s seven bridges and the connections they represent. Created in collaboration with regional musicians, the evolving composition blends strings, brass and contemporary sound.

Also, play a round of golf within the galleries and around the iconic Turbinia

After completing the 14 hole course, why not enjoy a well earned refreshment in our café?
