The COSI Science Festival is a 4–day celebration of science, taking place May 1st - 4th, 2024. Explore the festival experiences below to find an event in your community, on site at COSI, or in your own backyard.

From tours to trivia, educational talks, nature walks, and more, discover an array of exciting events for children, adults, families, and everyone in between. Held at locations around Ohio, these events highlight the science that is all around us by connecting us to the people who interact with it every day.

Experience the largest singular STEAM event in Ohio with over 100 exciting exhibitor stations with hands on science hosted by STEAM professionals, researchers, and experts from Central Ohio and beyond. Located on the Scioto Peninsula, just outside COSI, on the final day of the four day COSI Science Festival.

A BioBlitz is a way for our community to work together to find as many species as possible, and contribute to real scientific research in a fun way. Whether you take part through a BioBlitz community event, or in your own backyard, it’s as simple as going outside and taking a picture of a plant or animal.
