Date a caveman at At-Bristol's Valentine's Day event with a difference!

At-Bristol Science Centre will be opening its doors on 13^th February for an unique Valentine’s Day event with real heart for ‘After Hours: Love & Luck’!

This is the latest event for adults in the ever-popular series from At-Bristol. With no kids in sight, a drink in hand a chance to come and play on hundreds of exhibits, this event will also keep within the mood of Valentine’s Day for the visitors, as At-Bristol will be taking a playful look at the dating and mating game.

• Have you exhausted dating options with our species? Try out Neanderthal speed-dating, going on a date with one of our resident Neanderthals, to see if you would’ve got it on with a prehistoric human-like species!
• Get hot under the collar and test to see what your limits are by exploring the Scoville scale of chilli hotness, including live demos from the Wiltshire Chilli Farm.
• Go back to those school biology lessons and pull on some heartstrings as you dissect real hearts in the Live Lab.
• Check out the science behind ‘beer goggles’ with researchers from Bristol University. You can also have your own level of inebriation measured to see if it has had an effect on your choices!

There also a chance to get up to some animal antics as you create your own nature documentaries in Animate It! You can also take a romantic trip to the stars in the Planetarium* and get your heart going with our sports challenge ‘In The Zone’.

With 300 interactive exhibitions, that include magnetic attraction, a walk-in womb and a camera that can see hotties, there is plenty to discover that will get your heart a-racing. So whether you’ve got a date, are looking for love or just fancy a night out with a twist, it’s the perfect Valentine’s night out with a difference! Grab a drink, get hands-on and experiment!
