Sci(Fi)Night

Leave the Ewoks at home and journey to a gallery far far away for the ultimate Sci(Fi)Night as Questacon’s annual evening of adults-only entertainment ventures beyond the known universe.

Get an upgrade from Dr Scar as he attempts to convert humanity to cyborgs with SFX make-up; or find robots from across time and space roaming the halls.

See yourself in sci-fi with a green screen photobooth, rubbing shoulders with Star Wars costumers from the 501st and Rebel Legions and the Mandalorian Mercs, or Doc and Marty as they travel Back to the Future.

Launch paper rockets under the stars to boldly go where no paper rocket has gone before, or discover what happens to the human body in space at Q Lab, with experiments and demonstrations that are out-of-this-world.

Go beyond the known universe with Dr Brad Tucket as he presents Aliens, Teleportation, and Monsters – Oh My! The Impact of Science Fiction on Science or slash the beats of adrenaline-pumping music as they fly towards you, surrounded by a futuristic world, at VR Beat Saber stations throughout the Centre.

Need to refuel? Purchase out-of-this-world cocktails and tasty bites from Atomic Cafe’s pop-up bars.

With live music from Space Party, explore Questacon drink-in-hand, kid-free, after dark and immerse yourself in a night of intergalactic discovery where imagination and science converge!
