Event Information:

Hey Vancouver kids and families!

Our annual Faraday Show is UBC’s premium science lecture, designed for children and all those who are ‘young at heart’. It is presented by UBC Physics & Astronomy students, faculty and staff.

This year’s theme is: Expanding our Senses & Movements with Tech! We will explore questions such as: What is it like to see beyond the dark like reindeer, or snakes? How can we sense invisible forces? and How can tech improve our balance?

All these questions and more will be answered through fun demonstrations and hands-on activities!

Show schedule:

  • Pre-Show (table top demonstrations): 1:15PM – 1:55PM
  • Stage Show (stage presentations): 2:00PM – 3:00PM

Where: HEBB Theatre 2045 East Mall, UBC Vancouver campus. The North Parkade is the closest parking lot to the HEBB building.

When: SUNDAY, November 30th, 2025
