The event’s co‑founder says the goal is simple: bring people face to face with scientists who shape the city’s progress. Kids and adults alike can walk up to researchers, ask questions, and see experiments in real time. This personal touch is seen as essential for keeping young minds engaged with science. The festival’s schedule mixes interactive demos, talks, and playful experiments that cover everything from biology to engineering.Beyond the fun, organizers stress that hands‑on learning is crucial for future scientists. By letting children experience science firsthand, the festival hopes to plant seeds that grow into tomorrow’s innovators. The event also offers a chance for the community to discover how science affects everyday life, from health to technology. The festival’s open‑air format encourages spontaneous conversations and collaboration among visitors, scientists, and educators. Whether you’re a curious teenager or a lifelong learner, the event invites you to step into the world of discovery and meet the people who make it happen.
