Animals are transformed into robots in this family-friendly exhibition.

Larger-than-life animals form a robotic zoo in this immersive exhibition that will keep all of the family entertained. Using machines and gadgets, the zoo animals are reimagined with technology to reveal the fascinating things they can do to survive, from colour-changing chameleons to leaping grasshoppers.

Interactive activities include squid racing and chameleon tongue shooting. And don't miss two specially commissioned murals by Giulia Carasotto.
