Wednesday 6 August 2025 | 11am – 1pm

Get ready to reach for the skies! Join us at the Museum of Land Speed on Wednesday 6 August for a high-flying family activity where you’ll build and launch your very own rocket.

Drop in between 11am and 1pm to design and create a rocket using everyday materials—then head outside and see how far it can fly! Guided by simple science and a big dose of creativity, this hands-on activity is perfect for curious kids who love to build, experiment, and explore.

You’ll learn about propulsion, aerodynamics, and flight in a fun, interactive way—right next to the famous Pendine Sands, where speed and invention go hand in hand.

All materials are provided, and our friendly team will be on hand to help your rockets take off.

No booking required—just turn up and get ready to launch! The activity is included in museum admission and suitable for a range of ages.

Let’s see how high your rocket can go!
