Ultimo Science Festival 2013

Overview

From September 12-22, the nucleus of Sydney will be transformed into a science and research hub as part of the Ultimo Science Festival, an 11-day initiative from the Powerhouse Museum, Australian Broadcasting Centre, Ultimo TAFE and the University of Technology, Sydney.

But this isn’t just an event for nerd-burgers: there’s the Craft Punk workshops that’ll leave you in a garment of wearable light shows; myth busting with youth culture’s fave scientist, Adam Spencer; discussions about discovering stars; an exhibition that has you dodging laser lights; and even a Comedy Night for anyone curious about the world around them. Boring it ain’t.

So throw on your thinking cap, because it’s all happening at Harris Street’s Powerhouse Museum. This is a festival that’s sure to leave you wowing your peers with a ridiculous amount of knowledge.
