Dates: 13^th – 18^th August 2019
Opening Hours: Summer Opening Hours

Join us this summer for one of our Family Science Days and interact with over 200 exhibits in our main exhibition halls. Explore, play, build structures sturdy enough to withstand an earthquake, crank gears and trick your mind in our illusions room! If you have toddlers and kids under the age of 8, make sure to visit our Little Esplora’s section which includes exhibits tailor-made for our youngest visitors.

Get hands-on! Join us for the perfect family workshop and test your collaboration skills as you investigate rockets and learn how they shoot up in the sky or learn how to code by using Sphero, a spherical robot which is designed to inspire curiosity, creativity, and invention by connecting play with coding.
