Questacon at Night
The foyer at Questacon, set and lit for an night-time event.

Questacon – The National Science and Technology Centre is centrally located in the Parliamentary Triangle, close to Canberra’s major tourist attractions with ample free parking for visitors and a range of accommodation close by.

Questacon’s unique architecture provides a range of areas suitable for a variety of functions. The tiered theatre is an excellent venue for lectures, presentations and conferences. The adjoining smaller theatre is ideal for displays and break areas. Our foyer has featured as a spectacular setting for evening receptions. The other galleries offer an innovative opportunity for many types of events.

Please note that general and social events cannot be hosted, however, if your event or organisation’s mission aligns with ours:

to increase awareness and understanding of science and innovation through inspirational learning experiences

...we’d be happy to consider an application to host your event at our facility.
