Aberdeen Science Centre has re-opened for pre-booking online. After a £6million transformation in 2020, ASC has over 60 new exhibits for you to explore including The OPITO Theatre of Energy – the UK’s first immersive theatre experience – and their friendly, knowledgeable robot, RoboThespian.

It’s also opening to school groups from next week and schools can now make provisional bookings. 

You can also still transport Aberdeen Science Centre into your classroom with their digital STEM programme. From online escape rooms to videos recorded on site at the centre, ASC in Your Classroom offers the opportunity to explore STEM topics from the comfort of your classroom.

Mental health can affect our productivity, happiness and even the chances of suffering from certain illnesses. In this fun, interactive workshop we explore the science behind self-care with particular focus on the importance of sleep, nutrition and exercise. Book now.
