The 1990s: a decade when history seemed to hit pause. With the Cold War over, the Gulf War behind us, and the War on Terror still years away, the 90s ushered in a rare stretch of peace, progress and pop culture explosion.

It was the era of Teletubbies and Pokémon, Harry Potter and Horrible Histories, The Simpsons and South Park, Ab Fab and Friends. A time when kids devoured books, collected trading cards, and parents laughed along with cartoons that weren’t just for children.

I Grew Up 90s dives into the decade seen through the eyes of youth, showcasing over 200 nostalgic objects and artworks from collector Matt Fox. From Britpop and Cool Britannia to Lara Croft, the Spice Girls, Trainspotting, and Power Rangers – this is your chance to revisit the fashion, toys and music that defined the 90s.

And yes, there’s an arcade machine. Challenge your mates (or your kids!) to retro classics like Tetris, Tekken, Street Fighter and Sonic the Hedgehog.

Come take a break from the scroll and the stream, and rediscover a world before smartphones and social media – come and relive the decade when a whole generation Grew Up 90s.
