Science Rendezvous is a free annual public science festival hosted at Western University. It features hands-on activities, live demonstrations, and interactive exhibits designed to ignite curiosity and celebrate STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) for all ages.

This year, the event takes place on Saturday, May 10, 2025, at the Thompson Arena from 12:00-6:00 pm. Each year, our website and social media update exact dates, times, and locations (e.g., specific buildings or outdoor spaces) yearly.

No! Science Rendezvous is completely free and open to the general public. However, we do have several food trucks available on-site and encourage guests to bring cash if they wish to purchase food on the property.

All ages are welcome! Activities are tailored for children, teens, adults, and families. Some workshops may target specific age groups, but most are designed to engage everyone.

The event will occur rain or shine!
