Wallace & Gromit™: Get Cracking! Opens May 20th

Tally-ho! Get ready for a right bit o’ fun because Wallace & Gromit™: Get Cracking! is open for play from May 20- September 3, 2023.

Step into the north England home of cheese-loving inventor Wallace and his loyal and intelligent dog, Gromit. Blast off in Wallace’s rocket to the moon, launch the porridge canon, fix the broken Autochef, design your own cracking contraption, hop into Preston’s truck for a drive and more! 

This brand-new exhibit builds on problem-solving skills by encouraging children to playfully solve STEM-based problems in fun and engaging ways. 

This exhibit was developed by Minnesota Children’s Museum in partnership with Aardman Animations LTD.
