Sweet treats, stars and magical creatures - celebrate spring with us this Easter Holidays.

This Easter holiday, join us for a day out full of play and surprises. Investigate the delicious chemistry of cake baking in the Kitchen, use science to help out our magical creatures in live show ‘Fairytale SOS’ and take part in five space themed challenges to gain your ‘Passport to the Stars’ in the Open City Lab. In our Theatre of Curiosity you can explore AI through cuddly shapes, a giant map and a card game called ‘Spot the Cat’. 

Please book your tickets in advance as we tend to become fully booked during weekends and holidays. 

What's on this Easter holiday 

  • In the Theatre of Curiosity, enjoy a fun exploration of Artificial Intelligence using a giant map, cuddly shapes and a card game called ‘Spot the Cat’. You’ll uncover the hidden and interesting ways AI is being used in Bristol, see how it works and think about how it will change our lives.
  • Can you make a cake without flour? Head to our Kitchen to investigate the delicious chemistry of cake baking.
  • How do you get a genie out of a tight squeeze? Meet our magical friends, in our Studio show 'Fairytale SOS'.
  • What kind of curious are you? Come to Open City Lab to be a part of real research and gain your 'Passport to the Stars'. 

All these activities are drop-in. Just check times on arrival. 

In the Planetarium

Add tickets to the UK's only 3D planetarium for just £4 per person (£3 concession). 

Discover what aliens might look like and fly to distant worlds in 'Life in the Universe' or explore the lifecycle of stars in seasonal stargazing show The Ever-changing Sky.

Due to eye health restrictions, 3D shows aren't suitable for children under 6. Instead little ones and their grown-ups can pack their space bags and prepare for launch in interactive show Space Explorers 2D.
