Our Science Shows

Get involved as our clever science communicators astound you with some spectacular live science!

Our shows will change as we move through the year and our various exciting themes, such as Halloween.

Our shows last about 30 minutes and are suited best to children aged 7-11 years.

Discover what happens from the moment food enters the mouth, all the way until it reaches the toilet. See a series of gruesome demos, which need several volunteers to help along the way.

Sonic Science

How do we hear sound? How does it reach our ears? Why do we have two ears? We don’t really ask questions about something that we take for granted, but that just makes it more fascinating when we answer them for you! Find out more about sound, how it travels, how we hear it and why in space, nobody can hear you scream!

Bubble Show Cambridge Science Centre

Bubbles

Step into the exciting world of Bubble Science! From the chemistry behind bubble solutions to the fascinating physics of bubble formation, we will take you on a bubble-filled adventure!

Genome Explorers

Help our Genome Explorer find and sequence the DNA of five plants. Could one of these plants provide a new medicine? Align the genome and compare the DNA sequences to explain the visible differences and identify some potentially important invisible ones.
