FUN FOR ALL THE FAMILY AT THE CITY ART CENTRE
A CLEANER, GREENER FESTIVAL
BOOKABLE EVENTS
Please use public transport when visiting the City Art Centre, if you can. Show us your bus or train ticket (or your bike!) when you arrive and receive a Science Festival gift. See pages 47 and 48 for public transport information.
Many of our events are available to drop into during your visit, however some do have a limited capacity and can be booked in advance. You can reserve up to three workshops per child’s Day Pass purchase. Please use the grid below to plan your day.
GIFT AID SCHEME
CITY ART CENTRE OPENING HOURS
The Edinburgh International Science Foundation, which runs the Edinburgh International Science Festival, is an educational charity and all ticket prices for City Art Centre events include a 10% donation. This allows us to reclaim the tax you pay to visit through the Gift Aid Scheme – every pound you pay is worth £1.25 to us. These donations help make the Science Festival accessible to those on lower incomes. If you are not a UK taxpayer or do not wish to make a charitable donation, the admission prices for the City Art Centre are as follows: adults (£6.36), adult concessions (£5.90), child aged 7+ (£8.18), child aged 3-6 (£5.90).
Saturday 23 March – Saturday 6 April (not Sundays) 9.30am–4.30pm Allow 4–5 hours for your visit
