This hands-on gaming museum lets you play 100+ titles for hours, with discounted tickets making it a budget-friendly day out

If you want something that will keep the kids (and grown-ups) properly entertained for a few hours – this deal is one of those easy wins.

Right now, you can get entry to Sheffield's National Videogame Museum from just £7, saving up to 36% on standard ticket prices. And this isn’t one of those “look but don’t touch” museum experiences either – it’s fully hands-on.

Inside, there are more than 100 playable games spanning decades of gaming history. That means everything from retro arcade classics and early consoles right through to modern titles, all set up and ready to play.

Whether you’re reliving your own childhood or introducing someone else to it, there’s plenty here to get stuck into at the Angel Street attraction.

Each ticket gives you a three-hour session, which is more than enough time to bounce between games, try something new, and inevitably get a bit too competitive on multiplayer.

You can arrive at any point during your slot, so there’s a bit of flexibility built in too.

What makes this one stand out is that it’s not just about playing. The museum also dives into how games are made, the people behind them, and how the industry has evolved over the past 50 years.

There are interactive exhibits explaining design and development, which adds a bit of substance alongside the fun.

It’s also very family-friendly. There are tickets for both adults and children (ages 5–18), and under-fives go free – although they’ll still need a ticket booked in advance.

The venue itself is fully accessible, with space for buggies and wheelchairs, and it’s right in the centre of Sheffield, just a short walk from public transport.

The deal is valid from 1 June to 17 July 2026, with sessions running Thursday to Sunday, so it lines up nicely with weekends and early summer plans.

At £7 for kids and £10 for adults, it’s one of the cheaper days out you’ll find – especially for something that can keep everyone entertained for hours.

The deal is available through Wowcher, so you'll need to click here and choose your options, then redeem the voucher at the National Videogame Museum.

Plant-based ready meals have come a long way from the bland reputation they once had, and services such as Grubby are leaning into meals that look more like comforting weeknight dinners than traditional ‘healthy eating’ options.

e.l.f. Cosmetics

Matching foundation and concealer shades can be one of the trickiest parts of any make-up routine 😩 – but e.l.f. Cosmetics say their newly launched Soft Glam collection could make things much simpler.

The Soft Glam Base Covered Duo bundles the Soft Glam Satin Foundation with the Soft Glam Satin Concealer, both available in 36 shades 🎨 covering cool, neutral and warm undertones across fair to rich skin tones. The idea is simple – choose the same shade for both products and create a coordinated base without the usual guesswork.

Both formulas promise lightweight, satin-finish coverage that is buildable, crease-resistant and transfer-resistant ✨ – designed for everyday wear whether you prefer a natural glow or a more polished look.

Even better for shoppers, the duo is currently £10 with code FLAWLESS 💸 – saving £4 compared with buying the products separately.
