World Science Festival Brisbane: Robots and Rocketry

Celebrate the wonders of innovation and discovery at Robots & Rocketry, part of the opening weekend of the World Science Festival Brisbane! In a special nod to its 10th anniversary, the festival is extending its reach beyond Brisbane’s city limits, with exciting programming in Ipswich and other regions. For the first time, Robots & Rocketry will take place at the Queensland Museum Rail Workshops in North Ipswich, offering an incredible opportunity to engage local communities and share the magic of science with new audiences.

This two-day adventure brings robotics, aerospace, and engineering to life with hands-on activities for all ages, including:

• Launch your own rockets in Lift Off and aim for the stars.
• Dive into Roving Worlds, where you’ll explore robotics and coding to venture into new frontiers.
• Discover Surviving Space and learn about astrobotany – the science of growing plants beyond Earth.

Don’t miss this incredible opportunity to spark curiosity, inspire young minds, and ignite a passion for space exploration.

Join us in Ipswich for a stellar weekend of fun, learning, and adventure as the World Science Festival Brisbane celebrates its milestone 10th anniversary!
