What is The Big Bang South East?

Not been before? Take a look at our video from 2012... It's a busy, interactive and inspiring event with exciting engineering workshops, hands-on activities, super-science shows and much more!

 

What's happening this year?

There's something for everyone with science shows, inspirational talks, hands-on workshops and more. Here's just a handful of what's happening…

Professor Hal Sosabowski, from the University of Brighton, returns with his hit chemistry show "The Bigger Bang!" Expect colourful explosions, powerful pyrotechnics, big bangs and hilarious jokes!

Interested in nature and the environment? Become a science reporter and make your own wildlife video with Conserve Me. Meet zoologists and marine biologists and learn how the microphone, green screen, cameras and editing process work...

Geophysics made easy
CGG’s
team of geophysicists use a range of visual aids – including videos from operations around the world, chocolate bars, marbles, sand and water – to explain some of the mysteries of geology, rock properties and reservoirs, physics, refraction and energy waves.

Make your own Fairtrade soap or lip balm to take away with you! Find out about the chemistry and ingredients behind Visionary Soap's products and chat to the makers...

We are pleased to welcome former “Big Brother” contestant Jon Tickle, who presented seven series of the Sky One show “Brainiac,” at this year’s Big Bang South East. Jon is renowned for his segment “Tickle’s Teaser” on “Brainiac” – asking challenging scientific questions such as “Why is there no mouse-flavoured cat food?” and “Why doesn’t glue stick to the inside of the bottle?” He will be meeting students to discuss their projects in the National Science + Engineering Competition.

 

And that's not all. Take a look at the full list of what's on...
