May holiday activities in NEMO Science Museum

Until 5 May from 10 to 17:30 hours, exceptions included

Event

During the May holiday (April 18th to May 5th) there is much to discover in NEMO Science Museum. Feast your eyes during the demonstrations or experiment yourself during a workshop. The Chain Reaction can be seen extra often during this holiday. On King's Day (this year on April 26) NEMO is closed.

Go on a discovery tour during the May holiday

Build your own chain reaction with ringing bells, a catapult and a seesaw. Put your brain to work in scientific research. Or do experiments in the Laboratory and find answers to questions like: What makes a rocket blast off? You can also see the Magic or science demonstration, where you'll discover how wondrous science is, through ice-cold and red-hot experiments.

The Tulip Festival takes place during the May holiday. Grab your chance and take a look at the flowering tulips at NEMO. Until April 30, tulips can be admired at the museum entrance and on the rooftop terrace. And this year, NEMO has something special: its own exclusive NEMO tulip!
