Techniquest Ticket Portal

Expand your mind and explore all the interactive exhibits Techniquest has to offer, in the company of like-minded adults.

Space is the theme, so get ready for an out of this world experience at Wales’s largest Science Discovery Centre, set on the waterfront of Cardiff Bay.

Science Theatre

Astrophysicist Dr Mark Smith delivers a fascinating presentation on the Sun, Solar Physics and Nuclear Fusion — no previous knowledge required!

Planetarium

Star Tours — Find out more about some familiar constellations, the planets, how stars are born and how they die. Our digital planetarium can take you through space for a close-up look at some of nature’s most beautiful sights such as distant galaxies and exploded stars.

Exhibition floor

• Live science busking
• Space Bingo — ‘speed date’ with students from Cardiff University School of Physics and Astronomy to discover amazing facts about the universe, and then use them for a unique session of Bingo!
• Cardiff Astronomical Society sharing their passion for the cosmos
• Space Wales, the trade association for the space sector in Wales, will also be on hand

Tickets include a drink from Coffee Mania, the café next door, and all of the activities listed.

Please note: Space Bingo, Star Tours and the Science Theatre talk are all offered on a ‘first come, first served’ basis on the day.

It’s time for the grown-ups to enjoy Techniquest, without a child in sight…

Our Summer Sensation explores all five senses through a smorgasbord of activities designed to surprise and delight. Experiences that cover sight, sound, smell, taste and touch are all on the menu, along with a pay bar and food station so you can really make a night of it.

There’s a chance to discover more about the night sky too, in our Planetarium Star Tours, but you’ll need to be quick as spaces are limited and tend to book up a long way in advance.

Get ready to feel the force of the Hurricane, play the giant piano with your feet, create colour shadows, generate plasma trails, test out gravity vs. friction on the silver slide — and more!

Your ticket includes:

• Entry to Techniquest for the evening
• Welcome drink upon arrival
• Star Tours in the 360° Planetarium*
• More to be announced

*Limited capacity. Star Tours can be pre-booked when you purchase your admission tickets.
