This Valentines, fall in love with the cosmos at SparkLab. Whether you’re flying solo, with friends, or your favourite human, join us for an adults-only night of science that’s truly out of this world.

Astrophysicist and science communicator Dr Sara Webb will take you on a journey to the most extraordinary corners of the Universe. See outer space like never before, and discover why curiosity might just be the most powerful force in the cosmos.

Past distant stars, and across countless galaxies, join Dr Webb as she declares her love for the mysteries, and wonders of our universe.
