    With a mixed bag of weather predicted for the next few days, we’ve created a list of fun things to do indoors in South Wales – to stop you from going crazy!

    Whatever the weather, these will really keep you (and the kids) fully entertained…

    1. Go on a journey of discovery and science

    With locations in both South Wales and North Wales, Techniquest is a place for everyone of all ages to discover science in a fun and interactive way. It’s about time that you went back and discovered something new.

    Find out what’s on at the science discovery centre here.

    2. Go back in time at National Museum Cardiff

    They say our future lies in the past… but it doesn’t matter what you believe, you shouldn’t overlook the National Museum Cardiff.

    Situated in the heart of Cardiff’s elegant civic centre, it houses Wales’s national art, geology and natural history collections as well as major touring and temporary exhibitions. The art collection at National Museum Cardiff is one of Europe’s finest.

    Find out what’s on at the museum here.

    3. Play crazy golf

    Who says golf has to be an outdoors sport?

    Treetop Adventure Golf is located on level 3 in St David’s Shopping Centre in the heart of Cardiff, and best of all, you get the jungle experience without the rain.

    Visit their website for more details here.

    4. Stay dry and go shopping

    Who needs an excuse to go shopping? Well, if you do, there is no better time to head indoors. There are plenty of places in South Wales to shop and drop, with St David’s 2 one of our personal favourites. Park underground and come straight up into the shopping centre, without getting a drop on you.

    5. TeamSport Go Karting Cardiff

    Pick up speed and take the indoor track at one of Wales’ many go karting tracks. There are plenty of locations across South Wales to keep you entertained and ‘dry’. Visit TeamSport Go Karting for more information.

    6. Burn off some energy at a trampoline park

    Burn off some energy at Infinity Trampoline Park in Cardiff – one of those places that’s probably always been on your bucket list, now there is no excuse (it’s all indoors)! Sold!

    Find out more here.

    7. Take on the slides at Cardiff International Pool

    Let’s face it, when it’s tipping down outside, you’re going to get wet at some point. You may as well embrace it and have fun at the same time. Cardiff International Pool is full of fun slides for you to take on! Find out more here.

    8. Take advantage of F&Bs many offers

    It may not feel like it, but it’s still the summer holidays – and with that, comes the many deals for children to eat for £1. With locations right across South Wales, you can take advantage of this offer, or their £10 off your first meal voucher by downloading their app. Find out more on the F&B website here.

    9. Go bouldering and do some climbing
