Il-Ä imgħa tal-Festa |Celebrate Science the Maltese Way
(Now showing – early August)
Celebrate summer like a local! This colourful theme blends science with Maltese tradition, from the sparkle of fireworks to the rhythm of festa music. Children can code robots to recreate vibrant festa scenes, build imaginative kinetic sculptures, and explore soundwaves through clapping games and musical fun.

It’s Only Natural | Explore Earth’s Wonders and Wild Creatures
(Mid–late August)
Step into the world of nature with It’s Only Natural, where children become young explorers of Earth’s ecosystems. They’ll create clouds in a bottle, meet puppet animals from faraway lands, and search for fascinating minibeasts hiding in plain sight.
Through imaginative storytelling and outdoor adventures, kids will learn how even the tiniest insect plays a vital role in the environment. It’s the perfect way to connect with nature, especially for visiting families looking to escape the beach for a day!
Mission: Space! Blast Off into the Universe
(Coming in September)
Strap in and prepare for lift-off with Mission: Space! Budding astronauts will take part in playful space bootcamps, conduct real experiments, and explore the stars in an immersive planetarium experience.
From understanding the physics of flight to unravelling the mysteries of Mars, this exciting theme is packed with out-of-this-world fun, a must-do for families visiting Malta in early autumn.
Whether you’re in Malta for a week or a weekend, Esplora is an ideal stop for families seeking fun, learning, and hands-on adventure. With stunning views of the Grand Harbour and plenty of indoor and outdoor spaces to explore, it’s a top pick for tourists looking to add something special to their holiday itinerary.
