Marble Runs

Like you’ve never seen before!

You can set our unique and interactive marble runs going yourself at any time. We have an impressive collection of bespoke marble runs, handcrafted exclusively for us by renowned Swiss artisan Alex Schmid.

Snooki

The marble run you will want to see is our giant-sized ‘Snooki 2000’ – possibly the largest permanent marble run structure in the UK, or even the world! It is located in our upstairs shop (but can be viewed from the downstairs shop if needed).

It’s named Snooki because it’s so massive; it doesn’t use marbles at all, it runs on full-sized snooker balls! First built in 2000, this larger-than-life exhibit is proudly celebrating its 25th year, and it’s just as mesmerising today as it was when it first amazed visitors.

Magnificent Marble Runs

With four great designs to be found in our marble museum, you can explore the thrilling world of motion and creativity behind the marble runs.

Each run showcases a unique blend of engineering and artistic flair. These aren’t just displays – they’re fully interactive exhibits where you control the action.
