Fantaskipet – NEW!

Fantaskipet takes you and your team on an exciting and slightly challenging adventure into outer space. You are the crew of the ship and must work together to solve various tasks along the way. The more challenges you complete, the more points you earn!

But be prepared – there may be a few surprises along the way. That’s why we recommend that children are accompanied by an adult or older sibling on this journey.

Game Café

Take a break from everyday life and step into the Game Café at INSPIRIA, where both young and old can enjoy board games of all kinds! Here, you'll find everything from beloved classics like Ludo, Monopoly, and Chess to modern and innovative games that challenge your strategy, teamwork, and creativity.

Whether you're looking for fast, fun games or deeper, more tactical experiences, there's something for everyone. The Game Café is perfect for families, groups of friends, and gaming enthusiasts who want to discover new favorites or relive old memories.

Crime Lab

Welcome to INSPIRIA Crime Lab, an exciting adventure where you become a real detective for a day! Professor Bubble, our eccentric scientist, has lost the secret recipe for his world-famous fizzy powder — and now he needs YOUR help to find it!

In the Crime Lab, you and your team must work together to solve a series of challenging puzzles, crack codes, and uncover hidden clues. Each task brings you one step closer to the legendary recipe. Use logical thinking, be creative, and pay close attention to the hints — sometimes it's the smallest details that make the biggest difference.

Reuse Workshop

At the Reuse Workshop at INSPIRIA, creativity truly gets to bloom! Here, it's all about giving new life to old things — by repairing, redesigning, and creating something completely unique. In a time when sustainability and environmental awareness are more important than ever, we invite young and old alike to learn how to use their imagination to create something new from what we already have.

The workshop is brimming with exciting materials, tools, and inspiration. Maybe you'll transform old clothes into new treasures, build figures from used parts, or repair something that would otherwise have been thrown away? With help and guidance from our skilled staff, the only limit is your imagination.

Deep Dive – experience a world underwater

Explore the secrets and beautiful treasures of the sea in our themed exhibition, "Deep Dive." Dive into this exciting world and learn more about what makes the ocean so vital for us humans, what we use it for, and what threatens it. Bring your family and join us on an exciting journey through the depths of the sea.

At INSPIRIA, you can color beautiful fish and watch them swim around in a large digital aquarium, walk through a vortex tunnel, visit the center's creative workshops – and, of course, there will be opportunities to build with LEGO.

Shows at the centre

Planetarium Show – “The Invisible Clock”
What is time, really? Why does a clock tick the same way on Earth but differently near a black hole? In our new planetarium show, we take you on a journey of discovery into the mysteries of time. The show is best suited for ages 5 and up.

Science Show – Mysteries of the Universe
Have you ever wondered how the universe came to be, what makes stars glow, or why the sky can dance in green light? In our space-themed science show, we take you on an unforgettable journey from the Big Bang to the most fascinating phenomena in our solar system. The show is best suited for ages 3 and up.

360° Film Screening

Imagine diving into the depths of the ocean without getting wet – that’s exactly what you’ll experience with our 360° film screening! We’ll take you on a spectacular underwater journey where you’ll get up close to the incredible life beneath the waves. The film offers a unique opportunity to explore everything from vibrant coral reefs to mysterious creatures hiding in the darkest depths of the sea. A science center host will guide you along the way.

GyroXtreme

Only available between 1:00 PM – 2:00 PM.
Want to become an astronaut? GyroXtreme is an astronaut simulator that will simulate your journey up into the stratosphere (or perhaps rather back down from the thermosphere?). GyroXtreme reflects the astronaut training on the first Apollo programs and where guests get to experience the violent g-forces that can occur in a rocket launch, while at the same time they are given a coordination task in the form of child's play which immediately becomes more difficult when the world is turned in all directions and at high speed. Height requirement 140 cm.
