Located at Bighi, right by the Grand Harbour, Esplora is packed with over 200 awesome hands-on exhibits that let you play, explore, and learn all at the same time. You can build, test, experiment, and even make things explode (safely, of course!).

Step inside the Activity Centre to join cool workshops or be amazed by crazy-fun science shows that explain the wonders of our world, from bubbles to robots to how our bodies work.

But the biggest spectacle is the Planetarium – it’s like stepping into space! Sit back and zoom through the stars, visit planets, and explore galaxies far, far away. With a giant dome and amazing 4K visuals, it’s like flying through the Universe without leaving your seat.
