Purpose-built to tell powerful stories of over a century of conflict, IWM North makes full use of its extraordinary exhibition space to deliver a moving and immersive experience.
Brilliant museum, well laid out. We spent 2.5 hours walking around, reading about the history and had a quick bite to eat in the cafe. Really interesting and formative. Great for kids and family day out. Also there are 5 minutes of motivational and emotional videos shown. Really moving. I definitely recommend visiting.
Entry to the museum is free, you don't need to book. IWM North's architecture delivers an award-winning immersive experience. Walk through a timeline of history from the First World War to the present day. Over 2,000 objects and immerse yourself in the 360-degree cinematic Big Picture Show.
We had a great time visiting IWM. Museum has very interesting exhibits. Staff were very courteous and shared lot of useful information about the museum. Museum has several accessibility features and they are marked clearly through out the museum. We can borrow wheel chairs. There is accessible entrance, elevators and also accessible restrooms. There special hearing aids for hearing impaired and movie in the main hall supports sign language. Overall museum is well equipped with accessible features.
The IWM North is definitely worth a visit. There is a main exhibit space which has a low slope and low level lighting. There is an hourly Big Picture Show which has audio, signed and subtitles. The museum has kids backpacks to borrow which contain ear defenders. There is good clear signage throughout building and lifts. There is also a cafe and gift shop.

This museum is certainly worth a visit if you are in the vicinity. The primary exhibits and projections are engaging, and they showcase artifacts from various conflicts, primarily from the past century. Among the notable highlights are the Matilda II tank and the Harrier VTOL jet.
