The Granada-based science centre turned 20 on 28 September. It celebrated its birthday with a broad programme of activities such as a interactive exhibition on show in the city center of Granada . It shows the essence of the museum with interactive activities and science workshops. This anniversary exhibition was inaugurated by Adelaida de la Calle, Ministery of Education of Andalusia. A book was also published on this occasion.

Celebrations come at a busy time for Parque de las Ciencias: while its flagship "Wonders of Wildlife" touring exhibition travels around Europe (currently at the Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Sciences), a twin exhibition on work is about to open simultaneously at Parque de las Ciencias and DASA (Dortmund, Germany).

A temporary exhibition on the hands-on learning theory of psychologist Francesco Tonucci and the opening of new Biodomo next year are other activities organised to celebrate this anniversary.
