Bang LIVE is back!

Bang LIVE combines an action-packed live stage show and an interactive area to get hands-on with science.

The live shows bring the TV programme to life as the presenters test, stretch and explode science live on stage, while the interactive area features experiments and activities for you to take part in, including Dr Yan's table where our science buskers demonstrate the best street science.

There's just one location remaining this year:

POOLE, 2 - 4 JUNE

Advance tickets for the stage show at the Lighthouse are now sold out. There will be a limited amount of tickets for the shows available on the day from the Bang Live interactive area.

The interactive area will be in Seldown Car Park directly opposite the Lighthouse (21 Kingland Road, Poole, Dorset, BH15 1UG) and is free and unticketed.
