Spark After Dark

Spark After Dark is the science centre you know, but after hours, for adults only. Think hands-on experiments, electrifying DJs, interactive activations, and cocktails strong enough to power a particle accelerator. These 18+ nights are where YYC comes to eat, drink, geek out, and stay out way past bedtime.

What’s waiting for you?

• Explore the entire science centre without the kids—permanent and travelling exhibits included. Feeling brave? Add a ride on R0S!E, Spark’s robot roller coaster.
• Catch keynote talks, STEAM-inspired performances, and DJs that keep the energy high.
• Dig into interactive experiences, demos, and themed activations that make science unforgettable.
• Meet YYC’s hottest makers, small businesses, and vendors.
• Sip on themed cocktails and check out full bar service.
• Snack, nibble, or fully indulge at the Spark Eatery and Astronaut Ice Cream café.
• Stay so late it’s early—programming runs 6 PM–midnight.
