Discover our opening ceremony programme for the sCYence Fair 2026

Interactive activity that introduces participants to the combined impact of microplastic pollution and overfishing on marine ecosystems through a citizen science approach.

During the SCYENCE Fair, visitors will have the opportunity to experience, in an immersive way, unique virtual reality experiences using state-of-the-art autonomous systems, which allow the user to interact, utilizing his vision, hearing and body movement in 3D virtual worlds and digital environments.

Explore a multitude of fascinating presentations

Every participating school team will have its own booth.

The Physics Decathlon is a hands-on activity featuring ten exciting physics experiments for participants of all ages. Each experiment ("event") has a measurable outcome, allowing visitors to test their skills in these experimental challenges while learning about fundamental physics concepts and laws.

The presentation “Return to the Moon, Journey to Mars” highlights humanity’s next step in space exploration. Our portable solar telescope is the Lunt ST 70/420 LS60MT Ha B600, a certified instrument for observation in the hydrogen-alpha (Hα) spectrum, designed for safe and detailed study of the Sun.

STEM & Robotics Activities for All Ages

We will introduce the public to the work of marine biologists and show how science contributes both to the protection of marine ecosystems and to the study and conservation of sharks and rays in Cyprus.

Phygital Cyprus is an innovative initiative resulting from the combination of the words “physical” and “digital”, expressing a new, hybrid model of sports and entertainment where the real world meets technology.

Step into a world filled with retro toys & collectibles, stunning 3D printed statues (some life-size!), classic retro video games that bring back memories, a magical LEGO medieval village

The Cyprus Museum of Natural History is actively participating in SCYence Fair 2026, bringing the magic of nature and science closer to the public. Visitors will have the opportunity to explore Cyprus’s rich fauna, flora, and geology, and to see up close impressive stuffed animals, fossils, and rocks. Through educational games, science transforms into an exciting and interactive experience that sparks curiosity and inspires creativity.

Through the use of exhibits, rolling videos and hands-on activities, visitors to our booth will be able to have a text conversation with a girl their age who lived during the teachings of Hypatia the ancient mathematician, learn how people performed multiplications 500 years ago using Napier Bones, play an interactive game that teaches the history of personal computers and AI, program on the BBC micro:bit their own "Scissors - Rock - Paper" game

STEAM Cyprus provides innovative STEM and science education solutions for schools, combining hands-on learning with real-world applications.

The Antikythera Mechanism was an analog computer of astonishing technology — the first of its kind in world history. It was constructed more than 2,000 years ago (2nd century BCE) and was used for the precise calculation of the positions of the Sun, the Moon, and possibly the planets in the sky.

The traditional kaleidoscope, the magical toy of our childhood, gets a playful Paradox makeover! In this creative workshop, children design and build their own paradox-inspired kaleidoscope using colorful materials, mirrors, and imaginative decorations. Camouflage, also known as cryptic coloration, is a strategy used by many organisms to disguise themselves and blend into their surroundings. This interactive installation allows visitors to experience camouflage in a fun and surprising way.

Ever wonder how you can talk to someone on the other side of the planet without using a cell tower or the internet?

The Nutty Scientists are the global leaders in STEAM Edutainment! Since 2021, Cyprus is getting NUTTY! Visit the Nutty Scientists booth at the SCYence Fair 2026 and learn while having some serious science fun, performing hands-on experiments! The Nutty Professor has booked his flight to join the Fair, maybe you will be lucky enough to meet him in person and take a photo with him!
