An interactive labyrinth, neurologically monitored audiences, and other state of the art installations are expected to attract more than 15,000 people to this year’s Science in the City festival, coordinator Alex Felice said.

Addressing a press conference to launch the event, Prof. Felice said this year’s festivities would be concentrated along Republic Street to enhance the “festival feeling”.

The event, which coincides with other scientific festivals across the EU, will be held on September 26 but other events will be held before and after the main day.

A series of lectures will be organised throughout the week, including a science debate organised by Times of Malta.

The festival will include performances from Icarus Theatre Collective starring Royal Shakespeare Company veteran Tim Hardy and the Nouve Cosmogonie Teatro, on September 26, 27 and 28 in the Palace courtyard.

The full programme will be uploaded here next week.
