Tickets on sale for Telus World of Science annual adult-only fundraiser

A Telus World of Science sign remains lit as the building is temporarily closed after a small fire that broke out on Jan. 20, 2025. (Sean McClune/CTV News Edmonton) Have you ever wanted to roam the Telus World of Science with a cocktail in hand? Your chance is coming in October when the Telus World of Science Edmonton (TWOSE) holds its annual adult-only fundraiser. 'Where Science Meets Cocktails' returns on Oct. 16, promising a night where food, drinks and science collide. Vendors from some of Edmonton's top restaurants will be serving gourmet hors d'oeuvres while cocktail tastings will be provided by expert vendors and distillers. All of the galleries will be accessible during the event – including the Jurassic World by Brickman Lego exhibition. Hands-on cocktail-inspired science experiments and challenges will be available for patrons to participate in. There will also be 'explosive' science demos and liquid nitrogen treats. The TWOSE will also host live music and entertainment, as well as a silent auction. 'This year's fundraiser means more than ever to our charitable organization,' said Constance Scarlett, president and CEO of TWOSE. 'Every ticket to 'Where Science Meets Cocktails' helps us recover from the ongoing impacts of the fire we experienced at our facility in January while also supporting programs that make science accessible and inspiring for all.'+ Last year's sold-out event welcomed over 1,500 guests and raised over $200,000. Funds raised go to support science education programs, initiatives and events. The event runs from 6:30 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. on Oct. 16. Tickets are on sale now and are $159 each before tax.
