Young shoppers can enjoy a week of robot-building fun during a hi-tech half term of daily activities at intu Uxbridge this month.

The free events will also include the chance to take part in a Robot Design School with design studio lesson, Menkind Robot Demo, The Giant Junk Robot Build and even meet everyone’s favourite Transformer Bumblebee, live in-centre on Saturday 27 May.

intu’s nationwide “Shopperview” panel, made up of customers of its 14 centres up and down the country, selected the robot-inspired theme for half term week after they were polled on the activities they’d most like their children to take part in during the school holidays.

Natasha House, marketing manager at intu Uxbridge, said: “We’re excited to be bringing families a fun-packed week of free events and activities that will help them make the most of a visit to intu Uxbridge over the school holidays.

“It’s the latest compelling event to be created by intu thanks to valuable insight from our customers.”

Activities take place at intu Uxbridge on selected dates from Saturday 27 May to Friday 2 June.

They are free for all the family and open to all ages.
