About

No visit to Questacon is complete without seeing a show by the Questacon Excited Particles theatre troupe! Our live Spectacular Science Shows use humour, storytelling, exciting demonstrations and audience interaction to show you the wonders of science and technology.

Have you ever wondered if dogs can see colour? If fossil fuels are made from dinosaurs? Or what the coldest possible temperature is? Find answers to these questions and so many more in our energetic and entertaining explorations by our intrepid Excited Particles. Check with the ticket desk on arrival to find out which Spectacular Science Show you can see during your visit.
