13 - 21 August is National Science Week, Australia's largest festival, celebrating science, innovation, mathematics, engineering and technology. Questacon is responsible for the administration of National Science Week, along with other National Initiatives.
In over 1000 events held throughout Australia, it brings scientific displays, theatrical events, debates, public lectures and a myriad of science shows to over a million people each year.
Communities, schools and volunteers along with sponsors and state coordinating committees work together to produce a vast range of fun and exciting science-related experiences.
