The Glasgow Science Centre is a fascinating attraction for kids and adults that interprets technology and science in inspiring and unique ways. Standing near the River Clyde in the Clyde Waterfront Regeneration area, the Centre was opened in 2001.

There are two acres of exciting interactive exhibits, shows, activities, an IMAX cinema, and a planetarium. Visitors enjoy live science shows with whizzes, pops, and flashes. They can go aboard the Big Explorer in the Waterways exhibit, climb the bubble wall, explore the night sky in the planetarium, or become mesmerized by the Vortex tunnel or the Phantom Hand.
