Re:Wired Museum & Arcade CIC is a community-run organisation based in Teesside dedicated to preserving the technology that shaped our world. From the earliest home computers and arcade cabinets to the consoles and gadgets that defined generations, we collect, restore and celebrate the machines that changed everything.
We are a hands-on, interactive space where visitors of all ages can PLAY with the technology of the past. Many exhibits are playable — from the Atari 2600 to 32-bit consoles. 100% volunteer powered!
