Location
This is where we really bring science to life in front of your eyes.
Take a seat in our 90-person tiered auditorium, where our engaging presenter will show you some incredible experiments.
Depending on the show, they could involve ferocious fire, crazy chemicals, exciting explosions or ridiculous rocket launches!
Please note that we are able to accommodate 2 guests in wheelchairs per show.
