Echuca was swamped with people in town to enjoy the Questacon Science Circus pop-up centre on Saturday, June 18.

There were over 30 science exhibits, shows and experiments on display at the Echuca Sports and Entertainment Centre, from presenters holding fire in their hands to corn flour flame throwers — and spectators of all ages were left mesmerised.

Questacon Science Circus offers a great opportunity for students to immerse themselves with a mix of science and technology, exploring a new side of science many people have not seen before.
