At-Bristol - A world of discovery!

With hundreds of hands-on exhibits, live science shows and a Planetarium, At-Bristol is one of the UK's biggest and most exciting interactive science centres, conveniently located on Bristol's bustling Harbourside.

Freeze your shadow, play virtual volleyball, run in the giant hamster wheel, make giant bubbles, create your own TV Show and much more!

Become an animator for the day in Animate it! Join Morph and discover models and props, including a set from Aardman's Wallace & Gromit film, A Matter of Loaf and Death.

All About Us

The All About Us exhibit is all about the human body and brain.

You can feed the skeleton to see how nutrients pass through your body with Digestive Run, put your senses to the test with Goal!, play music through your headbones in Soundbite, see your own veins under near infra-red light in the Vein Viewer and explore your amazing body systems with Character Mirror to name just a few!

Live Experiments!

Plus, watch and take part in live experiments, including DNA extraction and dissections, unique and interactive in At-Bristol's Live Lab.

Our World - No More Waste

The Our World - no more waste exhibition shows how, in the natural world, nothing goes to waste.

Using their trade-mark hands-on exhibits, you will be able to do things such as track up-to-date hurricane patterns on an interactive globe, present a weather forecast in the future and blast balls of air to see air currents and change the way water moves.

There are also little critters to play with during the Jurassic period and lots more besides!
