Phenomena Factory is Australia’s newest and most exciting interactive science centre, located at Launceston’s Queen Victoria Museum and Art Gallery, the largest regional museum and art gallery in the country.
Phenomena Factory is the result of a successful partnership between Rio Tinto Alcan and the Launceston City Council. The objective of the partnerships is to encourage the community to explore and engage with science and technology.
Entry to Phenomena Factory is free, providing hands-on, minds-on, curiosity-on science education for kids of all ages. The centre includes over thirty permanent exhibits with regularly changing programs and displays. Fire your own EX-1 Rocket, challenge yourself in the Perception Tunnel or test your reactions while you touch, switch, pull and crank your way around the Factory, actively learning about science along the way.
The Phenomena Factory is open daily from 10.00am to 5.00pm and entry is free.
