celebrates Science Year on the road
The
popular science programme Tomorrow's World is to tour the country
for the very first time.
The
roadshow in celebration of Science Year will showcase the latest
discoveries and inventions direct to school children,
students and families.
The
four shows take place during July and will visit Birmingham (3 to
6 July), London (10 to 13 July), Cardiff (17 to 20 July) and Glasgow
(24 to 27 July).
Tina
Fletcher, Executive Producer, Tomorrow's World programme, says:
"This
is a new initiative undertaken by the Tomorrow's World programme
to bring science and technology to a vast audience and give school
children and families the opportunity to experience new gadgets,
inventions, entertainment and educational technologies at first
hand.
"It's
a fantastically interactive event showcasing the most exciting and
inspiring exhibits."
The
events are staged by 大象传媒 ONE's Tomorrow's World programme, which
will broadcast live from each show on Wednesday evenings.
The
themed zones within the roadshow will give visitors the opportunity
to experience science, technology and innovations first hand.
