About

  • We experience the world by using our senses, but they can be tricky to understand. Some of us have fewer senses than others, sometimes our senses can deceive us. We've been taught there are five of them, but some scientists and researchers think we can have as many as twenty!
  • Discover the multitude of senses that we can experience, how they can lead to us believing in the paranormal and whether we can train or improve our sensations and senses if we work on them.
  • The evening will start with a demo-filled talk in the Theatre, followed by activities and tasks to complete throughout the building. There'll also be the odd sensory den for ultimate relaxation.
  • Theatre audience: £16/£10, Ri Members or Ri Patrons: Free

Mission & Purpose

The Royal Institution is an independent charity dedicated to connecting people with the world of science. Science shapes our lives, our culture and the world around us. It’s the medical treatment that may save your life. It’s the device in your pocket that connects you to the world. And it’s how we will solve the major global challenges of the future. Our mission is to harness science for the maximum benefit of society. The importance of our mission cannot be overstated. It was recognised by the 58 wealthy individuals who founded the Ri in 1799 and is just as relevant today. But to achieve the full benefits of what science has to offer, we must ensure that there is a healthy interaction between science and society – something we have pioneered for more than 200 years. There are multiple ways to get involved and support the Ri and to think more deeply about the wonders and applications of science.
