From 1pm onwards you'll be among the first to explore the new museum, and there will be some exciting entertainment on Millennium Place:

• Stunt shows from international legend Terry Grant.  His is a brand of stunt show unlike any other – throwing his cars from side to side, sliding around obstacles and people, standing on the roof of his moving vehicle and much more.  You name it, he can do it!
