Earlier show time for an Autism friendly experience

This Friday 27th of September among the hustle and bustle of Science in the City a young bat with the name of Batu will be on a perilous mission to save his friends and family. Join us for Hanging On!, an immersive show for all ages, inside the white tent at De Valette square and follow a colony of bats living on the Island of Malta. Get to know more about the power of citizen scientists around the island and get a chance to help Batu. 

Science in the City will officially kick off at 6pm on Friday. The night will be bustling with activities of all sorts related to the many forms of science with an element of artistic creation mixed in as has become the tradition for this fantastic yearly activity in our calendars. 

Given that some might find the crowds intimidating, this year, Science in the City have teamed up with Green House (VO/0296) and Ramon Azzopardi Fiott to offer the option to join for an earlier performance of Hanging On!. At 5:30pm, a performance will be held specifically targeting those who might find crowds overwhelming and have family members that might find loud sounds particularly triggering. Book your spot for the inclusive show by filling out the form found at https://bit.ly/2mvca99. 

Science in the City is part of the EU-wide celebration- European Researchers’ Night. It is funded by the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions of the Horizon 2020 Program of the EU, and a number of corporate sponsors. It is recognised as a Festival by Europe for Festivals and Festivals for Europe (EFFE)

The consortium is led by the University of Malta, Malta Chamber of Scientists and the University’s Research Trust (RIDT), in partnership with Parliamentary Secretary for Financial Services, Digital Economy and Innovation and a series of other partners.
