Top scientists from the University of Warwick are leaving their labs to entertain, inspire and amaze! Pull on a festive jumper and join an evening of science and explosive experiments, hosted by Ally Caldecote. Expect to find out what makes a physicist tick, how the universe moved from chaos to order, and the inside scoop on the European Space Agency’s PLATO mission, launching in 2027.

Before the lectures begin, get hands-on with real-life science at the Live Labs in the foyer spaces from 5.30pm. Recommended for ages 7+, and all under 16s must be accompanied by a responsible adult. The show includes haze, loud bangs, special effects and audience interactions. There is a BSL interpreted performance (seats can be booked through the Box Office).
