Spokespeople
If you’re looking for someone to talk about science, curiosity, education or something else entirely, we’ve got a fantastic range of experience within our teams, so can provide spokespeople for TV and radio interviews.
In the past some of our spokespeople have covered everything from lunar eclipses to the science of dunking biscuits to Neanderthal speed-dating (really). No request is too strange and we’re happy to help out!
Filming
We’ve got some great locations for filming and photography in our exhibition and outdoor spaces, including our Planetarium, venue floor, second floor rooftop space with views of the city and outside squares - as well as all sorts of unusual exhibits!
You can download full filming and photography (including costs, options, and tips for making the most of your time) information below.
