From 24 October – 1 November Manchester Science Festival is back. We've got an exciting and jam-packed programme of events giving you the chance to explore, discover, question, and get hands-on with the very latest in all things science.
To keep the whole family entertained over half term why not come along to one of our many workshops from robot building to spy skills, get curious with bubbles or discover more about Charles Darwin. You can meet the fastest car in the World, gaze up at the night’s sky or for a real treat take the whole family to our exciting headline shows from Brainiac’s very own Dr Bunhead and best-selling “Horrible Science” author Nick Arnold.
And for the adults, something a little more sophisticated... try dabbling with the science of luck, scare yourself silly with our Science Festival fright-fest, or join in the debate of the latest hot topics. If you'd like to take your voyage of discovery at a more leisurely pace, you can explore the science of the city by foot on one of our many themed walks. Meet science face-to-face with pros like Steve Jones and Richard Wiseman, and see the funny side of science with some very talented stand-ups.
This year, the Festival has spread all over Greater Manchester, so keep your eyes peeled for our famous science buskers, take in an exhibition or two, or even join in our online experiments from home. We had so much fun last year, we hope you enjoy what we have in store for you. You’ll laugh, you’ll gasp, you’ll never look at science the same way again. We look forward to seeing you there!
