MadLab presents: Big Bots - Build a MASSIVE Junkbot Robot

Big Bots is a hands-on, engaging workshop in which you work as a group to create a 6 foot robot sculpture from electronic waste. This unique experience is sure to get your tinker juices flowing!

Each group will dismantle the waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE), design a 2D sculpture and build part of the final robot. Once finished, the completed robot will be displayed in Stockport for you to visit whenever you like!

All equipment is provided. But if you have electronic waste at home that you would like to use, please feel free to bring it with you.

Who’s this for?
-Strictly for ages 7+ (due to the nature of the tools and sharp objects used)
-Children under the age of 12 must be accompanied by an adult. Accompanying adults do not need to book a ticket. Every under12 booking automatically grants entry to an accompanying adult.
-Due to venue size, we ask that you don't bring more grown-ups or non-participating siblings so that everyone has plenty of room to create!
