Practical
Corona measures
In order to provide you with the safest and most carefree experience possible, we have taken a series of important corona measures.
How and when can you reach us?
We are located close to the exit Mechelen-Zuid and we have a large car park where you can park for free. See how you can reach us.
Technopolis is closed on Christmas, New Year’s Day and during the first week of September when we thoroughly clean and repair all our exhibits.
What and for whom?
Technopolis is a place where curious people aged 4 to 104 years old come to discover all kinds of stuff about science and technology.
Technopolis is not a museum, but a hands-on science centre! You roll up your sleeves during all kinds of workshops, feast your eyes on amazing demonstrations and mind-blowing shows and try out numerous interactive exhibits.
How much does a day trip cost?
All exhibits, demos, workshops and shows are included in our entrance fee. Have a look at the day programme to find out which activities to expect the day of your visit.
Are you coming by on a schoolday?
On these days, we mainly receive students. There are no shows during the day programme. We also do not provide workshops, because our workshop rooms are reserved for schools. However, all expos and zones are open on schooldays and we have demos at regular intervals.
You are very welcome any day of the year, just be aware that schooldays can be quite busy....
Coming with your class?
If you’re coming with your class, check under ’schools’ to see the complete school offer per year or degree.
Be sure to book your class trip in advance.
What can you explore in one day?
Make your visit to Technopolis even smoother using our app! From now on, you don't have to miss a single demo, show or workshop. You can also create a list of your favourite setups. Go straight to your target and don't lose a minute of experimenting fun via the handy map that can zoom in and out.
Also have a look at the day programme before your visit.
Restaurant
Are you hungry? Then you should go to our self-service restaurant ‘Megabyte’ for a quick bite to eat or even for a whole menu.
Shop
Like to enjoy your Technopolis day at home as well? Then drop by in our shop!
Tutors and edutainers
Discover, invent and test? It’s best if you do that yourself. But if you still have a question, ask one of our tutors or edutrainers (you will recognise them by their red Technopolis shirt and their passion for science).
