Science in the City calls it a night

Science in the City 2018 was another huge success as it saw around 30,000 people follow the trail from the Tritons Fountain Square to St George’s Square in the centre of Valletta, one activity at a time. Amid laughter, explosions, fire, music, science, theatre and dance, people were entertained by the unexpected that engaged all the senses, in this celebration of science and research. This seventh edition was also supported by the Valletta 2018 Foundation.

With over 80 researchers, 400 volunteers and 100 participants, this EFFE (Europe for Festivals, Festivals for Europe) awarded national festival is truly a community event that should not be missed. “If you didn’t make it this year, we strongly suggest you block the evening of Friday, 27 September 2019. It’s going to be bigger and better than ever,” said Dr Edward Duca, Science in the City’s manager.

Science in the City − European Researchers’ Night festival is funded by the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions of the Horizon 2020 Program (H2020, 2014-2020) of the EU.
