A highlight for Grand Prix lovers visiting Derby has to be the Donnington Grand Prix Collection. Situated just outside of the centre it’s home to the largest collection of racing cars in the world.

Back towards the centre there are plenty of energetic activities on offer on Derby family days out! Bounce Revolution is wall-to-wall trampolining fun. Play a game of ultimate dodgeball, fly through the air like LeBron James on the basketball court and beat the Total Wipeout Machine
Alternatively strap on your skates for a ride around Rollerworld of Derby. Up to 499 people can take to the maple-floored rink at any one time and bust their moves during the family disco sessions. If you’ve never been on eight tiny wheels before don’t worry, there are learn to skate sessions for the more Bambi-like that’ll get you racing around before you know it!
Choose your weapon for the ultimate laser tag experience at the Megazone. Race through smoke and spooky music that streams into this 4,000sq ft. arena spread over two floors to create a futuristic, atmospheric game for players of all ages. Navigate your way through different zones, such as Elimination, Infection and Zone Domination to see who makes it out alive!
