Step inside and get hands-on with science
Aberdeen Science Centre is packed with interactive zones, exhibits and activities designed to get visitors touching, testing, building, questioning and discovering.
Explore six zones across two floors, from space and energy to life sciences, creative making, digital challenges and hands-on play for younger visitors.
Choose where your curiosity takes you
Step inside two floors of hands-on science, where every zone gives visitors something to try, test, build or discover. From space and energy to life sciences, creative making and early-years play, the centre is designed to turn curiosity into action.
Explore at your own pace
Aberdeen Science Centre is designed for active, hands-on discovery. Visitors can move between zones, try different exhibits, revisit favourite activities and take part in public shows, workshops or demonstrations when they are running.
It is not a “look but don’t touch” kind of place. It is built for curious minds that want to press, pull, build, test and ask what happens next.
Science for every kind of curious...
