Museum of Illusions has proven hugely popular in the USA, and now, Manchester is set to be the first UK location and will even feature an interactive Metrolink tram exhibit.
The highly anticipated new attraction is set to open at the former Sports Direct store on Market Street this September and promises a captivating experience for visitors of all ages, immersing them in a world of optical illusions and interactive exhibits designed to challenge perception, spark curiosity, and stimulate the imagination. Museum of Illusions Manchester aims to offer a mind-bending, immersive experience that combines entertainment with education, pioneering the innovative concept of “edutainment”.
Examples of mind-boggling, Manchester-inspired exhibits include The Reversed Room – a Manchester tram illusion where guests appear to hang upside down from a Metrolink tram; The Following Eyes Illusion – where a famous Manchester persona can’t get their eyes off of guests; and The Building Illusion – where visitors can appear to hang from an iconic Manchester building. The Museum will also include some never-before-seen installations that will make their world debut in Manchester.
