A science centre with over 200 interactive exhibits spread across two floors. The building houses the UK's only 3D planetarium, which runs presenter-led shows daily. Hands-on activities include flying through space, turning invisible and climbing inside a giant bubble. The venue also runs daily workshops and experiments in its programming spaces, alongside special events like the Great Bristol Ball Run in outdoor spaces. There are relaxed mornings available for a quieter experience.
