Calling all kids and their grownups: come and start your weekend with a special morning set around the dreamlike world of surrealism

Enjoy DJ sets and creative hands-on workshops and so you don’t go hungry, a family-friendly breakfast offer, too. Include a visit to our Surrealism Beyond Borders exhibition with our combined ticket offer.

You’ll also get the chance to make surrealist creative collage cards, use your artistic skills to draw a surreal creature as well as strike a pose in our uncanny photo studio. The iconic Turbine Hall will come to life with music from Zakia (NTS Radio) and Mari* (Worldwide FM) programmed by Global Roots.

We aim to make your morning as relaxed and easy as possible – with a dedicated buggy park zone, comfortable breastfeeding area, and because you’ll have an early start, plenty of coffee.

There will be music in the Turbine Hall and parents may wish to bring ear defenders for younger children. A limited number will be available on the day.

The fun doesn’t have to end there. After 10.00 you can stay for UNIQLO TATE PLAY: Make Studios – free drop-in workshops offering creative fun for families inspired by what’s on at Tate Modern.

UNIQLO Tate Play is in partnership with UNIQLO
