Virginia Tech presents the 11th Annual Virginia Tech Science Festival on Saturday, November 2, 2024 at the Moss Arts Center, the Torgensen Bridge and the Newman Library on the campus of Virginia Tech. The Virginia Tech Science Festival is a Saturday celebration of science as a way of knowing. This expo-style, family-friendly event features over 60 exhibits and reaches 4,000-6,000 visitors, including families, school field trips, and Virginia Tech students. This year, exhibits range from nutrition to chemistry, robotics, neuroscience, bridge building, and virtual reality, to name a few; there will be a poetry contest as well. The festival is a collaboration across most of the colleges and research institutes on campus as well as many community members. The Virginia Tech Science Festival has a goal of making science and research accessible to all ages. Most exhibits are designed for elementary and middle school students. Younger children will find plenty to do as well. The event is free and open to the public, and parking will be available at Virginia Tech’s North End Garage and other campus locations.
