Adult Lates: Cracking Inventions & Cheese!

Techniquest isn’t just for kids. It’s for big kids, too.

Join us for our adults-only event this August where you can enjoy over 100 hands-on science and technology exhibits, try out the Wallace & Gromit: All Systems Go AR Trail, meet real-life successful inventors Tim Brennan of Vivobarefoot and Nick Arnold of Ergochair Ltd. (sorry, Wallace), and indulge in some cheeese!

Book on to some extra activities to make it a grand night out. There’ll be a Wallace & Gromit-inspired live science show, trips to the moon and beyond in our Planetarium, plus a claystation workshop for Premium ticket holders, where you’ll make your very own Gromit model to take home with you.
