Pacific Science Center

Celebrate Birthdays With Discovery!

If someone in your life has a birthday coming up, we may have just what you need.

Did you know you can celebrate your birthday at Pacific Science Center? Every Saturday and Sunday, we host a variety of parties for kids of all ages. The celebration starts in one of the private birthday party rooms, located in the Seattle Rotary Discovery Labs. We provide everything you need, you just come and have fun! Guests arrive in a festive party environment the moment they walk in the door, with room decorations, cake and goodie bags all coordinated to match the chosen party theme. Parents can relax and enjoy the party - leave the entertaining to us!

Experienced Pacific Science Center staff will dazzle the kids with a super science activity featuring a 20-minute Liquid Nitrogen Ice Cream Demonstration that creates ice cream you can really eat. When the party is over, you and your guests can enjoy the rest of the day exploring Pacific Science Center exhibits.

Choose from the following themes:

Weird Science - Celebrate your birthday with weird science! Marvel as our expert science demonstrator gives you a private window into the electrifying invisible world of physical science in this all-new birthday party! As part of your one-hour interactive science workshop you’ll defy gravity with the power of magnetism, climb inside an electrostatic field, and make your own spinning, whirling science wonder to take home. Then, see just how delectable science can be as we make ice cream out of some of the coldest stuff on earth, right before your eyes! Don’t miss this hair-raising science experience!

Astronomy - Explore space. Visit the planets and stars as we talk about what's out there and what keeps us down here. Build your own rocket and find out what mix of "rocket fuel" will make a rocket go farthest!

Butterflies - Discover symmetry and chromatography while creating your own butterfly, and then take a look at some real creepy-crawlies - Madagascar Hissing Cockroaches! Imagine life through the mind of a bug.

Dinosaurs - Become a paleontologist as we look at fossils from the past. Discover how fossils are made and how many different types there are. Go on your own fossil hunt and see what you can uncover! Create a dinosaur mask and transform yourself into your favorite herbivore or carnivore.
