Children aged 3 to 13 who have their birthday party at the Pavilion of Knowledge can dress up as whoever they want. From explorers to researchers, astronauts to forensic scientists or engineers, nothing is impossible.
Our exhibits will also be guests: these include more than 2500 m2 with activities for those who are curious and like gadgets, cheeky little ones and older nutty ones.
You only need to choose the programme that best identifies with the birthday girl/boy and indicate the number of guests. With the certainty that it's going to be a party with lots of science.
