About Wimbledon Lawn Tennis Museum
The Wimbledon Lawn Tennis Museum is a smashing day out for curious kids and sports fans alike. With interactive games, VR Centre Court tours, and real-life trophies, it’s full of fun and fascinating history. Best for ages 6+, and perfect for rainy days or wannabe tennis champs.
Top tip from the KidRated Tip:
Don’t skip the VR experience – standing on Centre Court (virtually!) is a proper wow moment, especially for kids who’ve only seen it on telly.
Quick Inspiration
Nope. Even if your backhand’s more biscuit-eating than backspin, there’s loads to enjoy – from interactive screens to funky outfits and fun games.
Best for ages 6 and up. Little ones might get a bit restless unless they’re seriously into rackets – but the techy bits and dress-up zones help!
Not free, but not Wimbledon-ticket expensive either. Family tickets are available, and it’s worth checking online for offers or combo deals with tours.
It’s a virtual reality experience that plonks you right in the middle of Centre Court. You can look around, soak in the atmosphere, and pretend you’re about to serve for match point (minus the sweat and pressure).
Yes. There are guided tours available (book ahead). You’ll see the press room, players’ entrance and more – it’s very cool, even for non-tennis fans.
The museum café is light on options, but you’re close to some great Wimbledon Village spots. Or bring snacks for a DIY picnic moment.
Yes – everything’s indoors, so no worries if the British summer does what it usually does.
2–3 hours should do it.
Very, including lifts and wide spaces.
Yep – and they do them in eight different languages.
