The Edinburgh International Science Festival attracts around 175,000 visitors for a variety of hands-on activities, workshops and shows for children, demonstrations, exhibitions, talks and tours, offering more than 200 events in 20 venues throughout the city.
Participating venues include everything from art galleries to forensic laboratories, with events ranging from debates, exhibitions and conferences to performances and even a science book festival. Serious attention focuses on the programme of talks, which deal with themes of important public interest, such as innovations in medicine and ethical issues that can arise from these.
The festival is a magnet for families, boasting three major kids' venues, each offering around 20 activities, including dinosaur digs, computer-game making and journeys into a giant nose!
Full programme details are available from the festival office and breaking news can be found on the Science Festival website.
