How is this event different?

Sensory-sensitive kids tend to be hands-on learners, but the bright lights, loud noise and crowded venues of average science festivals make it difficult for them to attend. Sensational SciFest puts their needs first - creating a sensory friendly event that’s free to kids and their families.

We’ve worked hard to design an event that prioritizes the needs of kids with special needs - including a low-fi calming center and sensory exploration room.

Ground Control to Major Fun

Our presenters are real scientists that have gone through training with CARD-USF, along with all of our event-day volunteers, to make sure that every child who attends has a fun and safe experience.

Our exhibits feature interactive elements to ignite your child’s imagination. And if you’re worried your sensory-sensitive kid may get overwhelmed, we’ve got that covered. There’s a decompression zone at the event where they can step away from the festival to relax and reset.
