19th July to 3rd September
We’re bubbling over with excitement this summer with a bubble-tastic takeover of the Science Centre.
As well as all the usual Science Centre fun, there's lots more to excite the whole family both inside and out. And it’s all included free with admission!
What is a bubble? Let’s find out together! Come and play with bubbles, dance with bubbles, explore nature’s bubbles and even get inside bubbles.
Grab a giant bubble wand and get creative with bubble play on the South Downs Lawn. Then settle down for a bubble storytime session while you watch bubbles float away across the stunning skyline of the South Downs National Park.
The bubble fun doesn’t stop inside. Take part in a bubble party at regular intervals throughout the day in Science Live and join the audience of The Bubble Show in the Science Theatre. In this 20-minute free live show, watch as exciting bubble experiments bring to life the chemistry of the states of matter and the physics of light.
And did you know that bubbles aren’t just manmade, they can be found in nature too. Use microscopes to explore how nature’s bubbles work and take part in a fun make and take bubble wand activity. Plus, pull your best poses with some bubble-tastic photo opportunities including putting yourself in a giant bubble!
Plus, don't miss two epic Planetarium shows, huge 'don't try this at home' demos in Science Live and two floors of hands-on science fun!
The Science Centre is open every weekend and all throughout the school summer holidays.
