Free Exhibition Hall

Explore, experiment and discover in our Exhibition Hall!

Packed with even more exhibitors this year, the Exhibition Hall is your chance to get hands-on with an incredible range of science, technology, engineering, and discovery.

Meet robots and reptiles, see rockets and retro computers, explore DNA and the human body, journey from ancient Egypt to the depths of space, and discover the science shaping a healthier, greener future.

Along the way, you could experience virtual reality, try brain surgery, investigate rocks and volcanoes, experiment with thermal imaging, tackle engineering challenges, explore the science of lightning and much more.

With interactive activities, experiments, demonstrations, and challenges for curious minds of all ages, there’s something new to discover around every corner.

No need to book, we invite you to come along and unleash your inner scientist!
