Get ready to spark your curiosity at our Annual Family Science Bonanza!

Bring the whole family and dive into hands-on activities led by real scientists, experts and amazing volunteers who can’t wait to share the wonders of science and nature with you.

Touch real museum specimens. Peer through microscopes. Try exciting experiments and tricky challenges. Explore everything from buzzing bees and slithering snakes to gigantic whales, extraordinary corals, mighty dinosaurs and even tiny (but powerful!) viruses!

Build your very own bug hotel to take home, roar like a dinosaur and see your sound waves in action, and discover why scientists wear lab coats. Play 'Guess Who? – Bee Edition', test your detective skills by spotting which images are AI-generated, listen to real whale sounds and uncover what they’re 'saying', and explore the wonderfully weird immune systems of animals – including your own!

It’s a day packed with curiosity, creativity and hands-on science adventures. Come ready to explore, experiment and have a roaring good time!
