TUN Basel 2026
TUN Basel is an interactive educational exhibition that invites children and young people aged 7 to 13 to discover science and technology through hands‑on experiments and playful exploration. Held annually at Messe Basel, it brings together universities, research institutions, and industry partners to spark curiosity and enthusiasm for STEM fields. At TUN Basel, Space Exchange Switzerland (SXS) will be present with a variety of engaging experiences, including Earth Observation, cosmic weather, and other interactive space‑related activities, offering young visitors an inspiring glimpse into space science and research.
Weltraumfestival
Every year, Raumschiff on the Zwicky campus in Dübendorf organizes a festival for everyone fascinated by space.
It’s a community celebration where people of all ages can experience, try out, and invent exciting things — or dive into conversations with scientists about the universe, what might lie beyond, and whether there could be others out there…
The festival is rich and diverse because so many take part: children, parents, scientists, observatories, tinkerers, association members, neighborhood residents, STEM organizations, and research institutions.
The festival is free of entrance
