A SCIENCE festival invades the city for half term.

The Brighton Science Festival will run from Monday, until Sunday, from 9am till 8pm, offering workshops for children.

Activities include watching science shows, learning about paleontology and programming and Halloween themed games involving slime and “vomiting pumpkins”.

There will also be workshops about space and the chance to see mosquitos, bats and the “world’s ugliest animals”.

Festival events are happening at various locations such as Brighton Youth Centre and the i360.
