The Off Season
The Off Season
Roving Scientist Bar
We're taking over Australia's oldest continuously licensed pub, putting a scientist at every table, and inviting you in for the least-boring bar chats you've ever had. Also probably some of the weirdest… we've got experts on everything from Galeophobia (fear of sharks) to dark matter. There will be games, microscopes, specimens, live music, prizes to win, delicious things to drink and eat, and just so many scientists to talk with. It's like speed dating, except nerdier and less susceptible to being overtaken by an app. Check back for program updates. Free event, so no bookings required.
