NI Science Festival: MEGA 3D! The Biggest Animals that ever lived

NI Science Festival

We are delighted to welcome NI Science Festival to The Crescent this February for a series of events.

A fascinating celebration of the world's most enormous animals!

Discover the magnificent megafauna that have shaped our planet - from the mighty megalodon, sabre-toothed cats and giant birds that existed millions of years ago, to the elephants, giraffes and whales that live today.

But why did some of the largest creatures on Earth go extinct? What do we know about their lives from the clues they left behind? And how can we protect the megafauna that roam our planet today? Unearth these secrets and many more in this captivating compendium.

Expect jaw-dropping 3D visuals, interactive fun, and a chance to solve some mega-extinction mysteries.
