Tame a tornado, freeze your own shadow, launch a hot air balloon and much more at Techniquest, the UK's leading science discovery centre, in Cardiff Bay.

Located in spectacular waterfront premises, visitors to Techniquest can explore an amazing exhibition of over 150 interactive puzzles and experiments, guaranteed to keep families and groups happily entertained for hours.

The fascinating hands-on environment will amaze adults and captivate children of all ages.

At Techniquest, no-one says "don't touch!", in fact visitors are positively encouraged to use all their senses to explore the fascinating world of science for themselves.

Techniquest also has other attractions: a 30-seat Planetarium where you can tour the solar system and see the stars by day, and state of the art Science Theatre with exciting demonstrations and science shows. There is also a Discovery Room where you can explore Curiosity Boxes on a range of topics from fossils to forensic science, mirrors to magnets. These are usually available during holiday periods and weekends only, are subject to availability and incur a small additional charge.

No visit is complete without a visit to the science shop, for all the latest gifts and gadgets, school equipment and pocket money toys. Finally take a break in the Techniquest Cafe offering an excellent range of refreshments.
