Your party includes all-day museum admission, our NEW private party room for 1.5 hours, and plenty of time to explore our interactive exhibits.




Our new Celebration Room


We’re delighted to unveil our newly renovated Celebration Room—the perfect place for birthdays, special gatherings, and private events. Tucked away through the Dark Science Cave and adjacent to the Science Theatre, this vibrant space is designed for fun, creativity, and unforgettable memories.


Our Celebration Room features a chalkboard wall where you can unleash your creativity with doodles, or leave special messages. It’s the new home for all ScienceWorks birthday parties, providing a dedicated space for play, discovery, and celebration. Plus, it’s available to rent for other private events, making it a fantastic spot for gatherings of all kinds.
