After Dark: Things That Go BOOM!

Lose yourself in over 650 interactive exhibits exploring perception, art, and science at our adults-only After Dark. Grab your friends and a drink and get immersed in mind-bending experiences and unique, thought-provoking programs.

What's the science behind fireworks? When has space exploration made - or had - a big boom? Join us as we celebrate July 4th with rumbling, roaring thunder, the explosive potential of science demonstrations, space travel, and spectacular explorations of other booming activities and exhibits.

Please note: The Exploratorium is not in the viewing corridor for San Francisco's Independence Day fireworks display. To ensure the best view, you may wish to congregate at Fisherman's Wharf or Crissy Field.
