Darganfod Science Festival is returning to Wrexham town centre this summer following last year's popularity.

After the success of 2021’s hugely popular event, Xplore! Science Discovery Centre and Tŷ Pawb will once again be teaming up to bring you a scientific extravaganza of wild and wonderful family-friendly activities, demonstrations and interactive performances.

The jam-packed, two-day programme will include robots, bubbles, slime, paint-making, plus the return of the Exploding Custard Show.
