Description:

Glasgow Science Centre is an independent Scottish charity dedicated to raising awareness of science and technology. It is a treasure trove of scientific education and entertainment. The science mall is home to three floors with hundreds of interactive exhibits, a dedicated science show theatre and the Scottish Power Planetarium where you can learn about the wonders of the night sky under the glittering dome. Glasgow Science Centre also features Scotland's only IMAX cinema and Glasgow Tower, the only tower in the world to rotate 360° from the ground up.

What makes Glasgow Science Centre magical though, is the opportunity to interact with science. From watching a brain boggling demonstration to taking part in a fun workshop or simply chatting with one of our science communicators - makes science accessible.

A recent £1 million addition to GSC is the stunning new entrance, complete with LED feature wall and new 500m2 corporate events space called "The Atrium".
