This event is sponsored by Jean-Louis HEUDIER, an internationally renowned astronomer from Nice.
As part of the 2010 Science Festival, a large section of the scientific community of Sophia Antipolis invites young people, adults, and families to share two festive days with them at the Garbejaire site, at the “Bermond Farm,” and at the Valbonne Sophia Antipolis community media library.
On the agenda for these two days:
- A village of tents hosting scientific stands: Computing, astronomy, robotics, agronomy, sustainable development, aeronautics, biodiversity, science careers, …
- Laboratory tours: free shuttle departure from the village (Saturday only)
- Treasure hunt. Come and win many prizes by playing a treasure trail game linking all the stands to help you discover the hidden treasure with clues…
- Scientific picnic: everyone can bring their own snack to share with music and friends!
- Grand free concert. Four bands of musicians, all scientists: discover them in a different light!
Come in large numbers to share in this great entirely free celebration!!!!
