Hunter Science Festival


The Hunter Science Festival will be packed with free science and entertainment for families! This year the festival will feature an outdoor stage so everyone can see the science shows! It's a big day of stage performances from Fizzics Education, The Bubble Laboratory, The Pretty Amazing Jono and HMRI Poo Palace researchers. Over thirty of your favourite stalls from last year are back PLUS we've loaded it with even more new free science experiences for kids and adults.

Bring your own lunch to picnic on the lawn whilst you watch the stage entertainment or enjoy a sausage sizzle from Rotary Club of Newcastle Enterprise and one of the famous "poo" cupcakes from KT Bakes Cakes!
