Brighton Science Festival

After two weeks of bangs, blasts, forensics, lizards, ghosts and magic, the Brighton Science Festival 2017 is over for this year. We would like to say thank you to all of those who showed, created and demonstrated, but especially those of you who got involved! Hopefully your brains have expanded and you’re ready for next year. If you can’t wait that long, there is plenty happening throughout the year which you can find out by signing up for our newsletter.

POCKET SCIENCE

Brighton Science Festival’s famous funfair-with-a-twist, coming to a town near you. It looks like a funfair – it is a funfair, but with a little bit of science that’s sneaked in. Expect dive-bombing seagulls, machines that can shrink you to the size of a pin, Incredible Machines, weird sounds, funny smells, and sideshows guaranteed to enthrall and entertain.

WIDENING PARTICIPATION

After bringing some of the world’s best science to Brighton for two weeks, the mission now is to take some out to the rest of Sussex. We roam Sussex and further afield, visiting youth clubs, scout huts, community centres, bus shelters, anywhere, making sure everyone has access to as much science as possible. Why? Because science is cool. I mean, sometimes -273.15º celsius.

SCHOOLS TOUR

Although the bulk of Brighton Science Festival takes place in February, and we’ve recently widened our horizons to Autumn, we’re also constantly on tour – visiting schools and bringing science, education, and most importantly fun to as many educational establishments as we possibly can. If you’d like Brighton Science Festival to come to a school near you, please do get in touch and let us know.
