Organisers of the annual Scifest Africa event held in Grahamstown said this year’s event was a huge success. With 58 400 visitors to the display of exhibitions and 24 000 tickets sold to the interactive workshops, the event succeeded in making Science cool.
Scifest is a chance for young people to view displays of how Science can be seen in everyday life – in crops growing in the fields, in the ocean and even in the stars. This event allows learners to attend interactive workshops that focus on a specific theme and to attend lectures presented by industry professionals.
