How do I book a workshop?

Open the session on the festival program (festiwal.pg.edu.pl/events) and register there. The "Wcześniejsza rezerwacja" filter shows which events need booking, and "Brak wolnych miejsc!" means a session is full.

Does my kid need to speak Polish?

The program is in Polish, and most sessions are too. Robot races and chemistry shows are the easiest to follow without it; talk-heavy lectures and workshops are harder.

Do we need to book the Fahrenheit picnic?

No. The picnic at Hevelianum is open to everyone: just turn up.

About

The Baltic Science Festival opens the labs and lecture halls of Gdańsk Tech (Politechnika Gdańska) for hands-on science: chemistry shows with colored flames and smoke, robot races, DNA extraction with kitchen supplies, math escape rooms and architecture workshops. The Fahrenheit Science Picnic adds an outdoor science village at Hevelianum. Most sessions are led in Polish. Kids who don't speak it get the most from the shows and demos.
