Citizen Science Fair
Where everyday observation powers real-world discovery.
Get ready for a science adventure like no other! On this special student-only day, school groups will take over the Citizen Science Fair for a hands-on dive into real-world research, environmental action, and the power of everyday observation.
From coral analysis and frog listening stations to plant tracking, biodiversity counting, and more. Meet working scientists, test cutting-edge apps, and engage with real-world research in the heart of World Science Festival Brisbane 2026!
With pop-up talks, digital tools, and interactive experiences, students will walk away inspired to keep asking questions and start their own citizen science journey – at school, at home, and in their communities.
Where curiosity meets impact – this is science in action!
Primary School Students (P – 6):
