Smelly Science

Get ready to roll up your sleeves and dive headfirst into the wonderful world of water!

Join Urban Utilities’ science experts as they take you on an exciting adventure through Southeast Queensland’s amazing urban water cycle.

Find out how water travels from rainclouds to rivers, through pipes to your taps – with a few messy surprises along the way!

Watch in awe as water transforms right before your eyes with fantastic experiments like the magical "Cloud in a Jar" and "Water in the World." Learn all about how your habits affect our water system through experiments like "How to Make a Fatberg" and why we should think twice about what we flush. This show is packed with learning, laughs and watery fun! Perfect for the whole family to enjoy.

Smelly Science is part of World Science Festival Brisbane. Find out more here.
